Engulfed in darkness
I make my mark

I start to strum the guitar, with her in mind.. I smile before I sing, the words about how happy she seems.. But the song changes chords, minor and sad, I tell a story about how really things are bad.. She cries in the morning as she awakens, I think its me, My soul is shaking.. The chorus is about us and them, How they destroyed our love poem.. I try to make her happy, I try to color her eyes, But I need to stop this nonsense I need to go on to the other side.. You see my songs make her cry, She screams why did you have to die! I sing to her dreams,  She sees I am not yet an angel, Because I cannot go alone toward this  heavenly light beam..
How could I cross over with out her!  Its my fault!
How
can this one meager drop of water
That slowly falls from my eye
down my cheek
onto the floor before me
have so much meaning

How can something so minuscule
Make all the difference In ones day

How can this miniature droplet of water upon my face
Signify all my sadness and yet consume all my joy

How can this single tear mean so much
