Silver Tear
copyright ©2001 by Stephen Craig


I stood
on the horizon
of my dreams
and looked
into your eyes.

I reached
through the mist
to touch
the softness
resting on your cheek.

I called
through the darkness
hoping to hear
the echo
of your cry.

I found
a perfect joy
when you turned,
lifting your hand
to catch the silver tear
falling from my eye.
