Tears

When looking out the window

And heart is full of joyful cheer 

Peace inside has reached crescendo 

Almost childish, which was austere

Feel suddenly a wet little drop

Trickling down my cheek and jaw

No sadness I feel in real

Somehow happiness has its flaw

Try to reminisce moments past

What did leave my emotions aghast ?

Why the flower of my bloom

Reminding me of a parched plume

What buried thought invoking fright

Thought I saw all clear as light

Something lurking in the dark

Overshadowes my merriment bright 

Don't acknowledge, if there is one

Some negative keeps down my sum

I am a soul that strives to thrive

Uplifting self, that must be done.
