Every Tear you shed at my expense

is a tear I will never be able to pay you for

The toll each tear takes up our soul

is a Tear i can never give you back

Every wish I make in my life

is a wish to never see you sad

a wish to always see you smile

and never shed a priceless tear

Every reason is irrelevant

it doesn't matter who is right or wrong

in that moment of my life

all that matters, is your tear

Every Tear I take, is not taken lightly

and while everyone is priceless

and will never be able to pay you back

Just know that I'll try my hardest

I will try my very hardest to pay you

by forcing a smile on your face

more times in our life

than you'll ever have a tear

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This Poem is about my sadness when I upset my fiance. It really doesnt' matter if she is wrong or I'm wrong, or what the reason we are fighting about is... whenever I see a tear start to form on her face, I break down inside. I cant' stand to be the one to cause one of her priceless tears to stream down that beautiful amazing face. I love her so much, and I know over the course of our lives she'll probably shed many tears at my expense... I just hope I make it up to her, in smiles :)
