A tear

A tear
the final one, the bitter one
that should not be dried with a hand
or wiped with a handkerchief
Let it slowly run down your cheek
until it drops
on its own
and breaks

A tear
beautiful and brilliant in a bright light
but it doesn't last, it evaporates
dries out on its own
You can't keep it
the child of the moment must disappear
on its own
quietly

A tear
the mark of sadness, the mark of pain
so fragile you almost can't see it
I remember it
to remember the reason
why I'm crying
why I'm empty
At the same time I let go
let go of you
dince I can't keep you here
forever
a prisoner
