Tears

Peers grow wisdom through their tears
Through our fears and through their years
They lubricant your taking hold
Of being bold and growing old.

A soother and an agitate
A smoother and a pay for freight.
The mad of sad and ploy of joy
A bare and wear of our employ.

It is a potion drawn from thee
It is an ocean and the sea
Of agony and ecstasy
Of things that may or may not be.

A compensate a lavaliere
A pendent hung on chain of sheer.
A cloths line drying in the sun
Of all the wash the heart has done

A tear, a drop of vintage wine
That ripens in the hearts entwine.
Glimmer and simmer of a goal
The blood and essence of our soul.

So savor every loin of tear
It is the coin of human peer.
