The Tear
Months had gone by since I saw you last.
I thought I had put you completely in the past.
Seeing you there, with her, in our favorite place,
I could look at you with a smile on my face.
You turned around and saw me standing there.
All I could do then was look back and stare.
Your eyes met mine and our gazes locked.
Once again, I felt like my heart beat stopped.
A frozen smile on my face, so you wouldn’t know
That in that moment, I knew I still loved you so.
Standing there with her, you started to speak,
Then you saw a tear slip slowly down my cheek.
I closed my eyes and turned slowly away.
Leaving, knowing that I could never stay.
The heart break I bore was just like before,
But, walking away from you hurt even more.
