• These two tears fell from my eyes
    like raindrops through our leaking roof
    the day you left.
    These two tears sparkled
    like the diamonds you once gave me
    that were only cut glass.
    These two tears fell to the floor
    like my hand fell to your arm
    begging to be taken back.
    And these two tears,
    like the many which followed,
    are all that remain of what we were.
