Taste of Tears

when tears fall

    A Taste of Tears        *
Once upon a season
many tear stained pages turned
when youth was my dismay
and passion  something I yearned
                *
You journeyed, crossing my path
from a place far away
at a time when saddness bloomed
and a knight needed to come in play
                *
As tears danced from my eyes
and rivered toward the oceans
and darkness faded in from light
that moment full of emotion
                *
your hand to my face
your trembling finger beneath my eye
you cleaned from other's impurities
and tasted all of our lives
                *
With your finger to your lips
Salty I am sure
windowing into my soul
deeply you did stir
                *
I found a moment in time
separate from all the rest
tears ,forever united our souls
quincing for an absolute quest
                  *
