TEARS

He lies asleep

Fast in her embrace

As soft tears fall deep

Living, breathing

He sleeps on

Her tears break the bond

While the connection is gone

He barely stirs

As her pain is released

Broken echoes

Of times gone past

In shapes of crystals

Liquid diamonds break fast

All hope is dashed

Her body quivers

Racked with sobs

Face pressed against neck

Flesh to flesh,

Life to life

Tears fall still

Hope is gone

This life is done

The past is coming

But he awakens

Arms wrapping hard

Murmurs, whispers form

Tears fall free

Hope is gone

Morning is dawning

A new start, a new day

And he cries..
