Tears

Tears are the rain
Falling from two eyes.
Tears are the pitter patter
From one's cry.
The light tear running,
Running down the cheek
Like a never ending stream.
Tears are the salty drops
Of sadness from one's hope,
Puddles are the tears
That have splashed on the floor
Tears are the droplets-
The ones that you cannot hide.
Tears are melancholy from ones inside
