Tears of My Mind

Tears from what is thought to be heaven.
Falling drops of mercy land all around me.
Standing wet, from tears of the sky,
with feelings of comfort and relief.

Yet I notice a tear roll down my cheek
but this tear does not come from the sky, the heavens.
But it came from the sorrow and remorse in my mind and heart.

This tear was built from the very depths of my pain, my soul, my mind.
The pain builds with every second,
I stand in this wet twister of sorrow that surrounds me.

As this pain grows so do the tears,
but not just the tears from my eyes,
but also the tears falling from the sky.

I realize that these tears I shed
are one and the same with the drops all around me.

I was being swallowed by a endless growing puddle beneath me.
Created by the torn parts of my heart spread among all I've loved.
This feeling slowly bringing me down to my knees.

I look up and see what seems to be a endless stream of falling tears.
But then something happened, something which made the tears stop.

It was a hand, a hand that caressed my cheek taking the tears along with it.
The hand, now pulling me up, was a hand which she controlled.
Looking deep into her eyes the pain that was consuming me went away.

Then she set forth the words that brought the joy back into my life.
-Don't be sad, for those tears that bring you such sorrow
are but only tears of your mind.-
