Life As Your Tear

I closed my eyes
And remembered.
How I used to look upon you
With so much love.
How I use to live for you.
You were the light of my life.
Now I am left to but a fantasy.
How wonderful the next one would be
Were I to be reborn as a tear
Springing forth from your angelic eye
A product of your pure emotion.
To be that tear that embraced your cheek
And caressed you down to your perfect lips.
Those lips I’ve kissed a thousand times.
To have touched them just once more
Alas, again only to be wiped away
Discarded, tossed and forgotten.
Once again, having lived for you.
