A tear

A single tear
too hard to bare
drips down a face
and into a lair

there it will stay
to the day she dies
for it will get its way
even if she tries

she will fight and fight
with all her might
but...see...the tear is a tower
with all sorts of power

it will eat and eat at this girl
until...its just a blur

but in the end...the tear will win
for all it did
was drip down the chin
of a lonely kid
