A single tear
is in the corner
of my right eye.

It feels like
it's on repeat.
Been there before.

When exactly
I don't know,
does it matter?

Too often I read
of tragedy and
of things gone wrong.

When I do,
the tear returns
to travel down.

Just the one tear
showing emotion
and heartbreak.

Letting the world
know that something
touched my heart.

Letting people know
that my heart aches
for those hurt.

Letting them know
I feel for them
and I'm there for them.

There's a single tear,
it's in the corner
of my right eye.

It sends a message:
I care, I'll help,
you're not alone...
