Slow Tears

I look up


As a tear rolls slowly


Down my cheek


I think about better days


And wonder if I'll feel that way again


You look at me


With those eyes I know so well


Always serious, so deep and insightful


As though you're always in control


But not todaynot now


Now you look so scared


Like for once you don't have the answer


I gaze at you


Looking deep into those hazel eyes


Hoping to understand


Why you've said those things you did


I wonder for a momentif this is all a dream


If I shall wake in the morning


And be relieved


You look at me


With a confusion I have never seen


Slowly pull me towards you


And wipe the tears from my cheek.....
