Each Tear…

Each tear
A crown jewel
I preserved behind my ego…

Each favor
I refused to see
Haunted me before I go

The one who took my hands as I stumbled
Little I was… looked up and smiled
Wiped and faded in the winds of time

Caressed my head in their lap
When I was sick and sublime…
I am arrogant now in my own sound sleep

Gave me big sweet in my tiny hand
Not bigger than my eyes wide
I remember not all those tides and times

I die now… so alone…
With each tear passing my cheeks…
Each tear for each angel… who loved me dear
