The tear is; trickling from the sky.
Moving its way to nothing;
A mere being with no desire.
Pattering against the ground;
They go splat and scatter.
Fragments seep to the underneath,
Continuing the aimless journey.
Sitting on top, trying to get in;
The soil's jaws shut the tear out.
Flowing into a new light;
The tear bakes in earth's natural vice.
It absorbs into the essence;
Taken from the air, broken down.
Fades into the world of vapor
Flown to the sky on wings.
Days wither and years pass
Unnoticed,
Until one moment the tear

From the sky;
Moving its way to nothing;
Just another passing to come by.
