Tear

   The last poem in this trilogy  Tear: Reassurance. There came a time after my relationship ended that I question his love for me, though others reassured me that he did, I still doubted, I still questioned. I questioned whether he knew how much I loved him. I knew that this poem he would never see; somehow i thought that the wind would carry it to him one day and he may answer but I know it will never be nor do I need it to be. I have found closure, my first love, my first heartbreak, I can finally let you go but you will always have a piece of my heart that will not be gone, the memories will always remain. Tucked safely away.

Someone said to me that it was unfair of me to compare all my relationships to him. To that I say, I do not. I compare it to how I felt for him. The love I had for him I know is out there I just need to find it, or find me.


 Tear

How could I have known what joy you brought
Into this life of mine.
How could I have seen the love you sought
From such as me in time.

Did those treasured words which i spoke
Find their intended mark?
Did you know the whispers you spoke
Touched my suffering heart?

Do you remember the crystal tear i cried
Falling slowly to the ground?
Do I remember strong hands which i relied
Catching it, no breaking sound?

Did you know the rhythm of your heart
Captured my very soul?
Did you know, my love, the tender part
Is what you really stole?

How could we have known our souls would join
Together always as one.
Could we have guessed after cautious tones
The forever love to come?

Do you remember the moment arms care
Were gentle, strong around me?
Do you remember unspoken words in the air
A love released, flying free?

Did you feel my fingers gentle and soft
Upon your handsome face?
Did you feel the ease that you sought
Come from my deepest place?

Did you hear the butterflies deep in me
Fluttering to your lips?
Did you hear breathless pause each time
Upon my brow, eyes, my lips?

How could we have guessed that a heart, a tear
Would bind us safely together.
How could we have known a love grown dear
Remembered for always, forever.

Did you know?
