~A last lost tear~

A millenium it seemed when it rolled down her cheek
Eyes lit like sun in fathoms of wet
She'd not asked for this
Yet her heart took her there
Vision obscure with mind full aware

Calendars in cradle each day marks an X
Expired as they lay on the counter in view
Was her heart brought her here
Flame burned so bright
Eleven in the pile workin on twelve

To the minute of day was his last gentle kiss
That last tear was found when her heart let it go~
