The Invisible Teardrop

This is for a good friend of mine who I lost too soon. I just realized I've never posted it anywhere. The ocean hides the teardrop that you never showed to me Sometimes I try to visit you by going to the sea The water seems endless as waves crash to the shore And separate drops join into one splash and I can't find them anymore And so I am reminded of how you always hid your tears Behind forced smiles and claims that you hadn't cried in years. And so today I dig through the sand continuing my search I'd give anything to dry that tear that tore you from this Earth. Your war with this world has come to an end, but you've left so much here with me And wherever you are, I hope it's peaceful. Peaceful like the sea.
