The first tear falls,
from long brimming eyes.
This worn, tired soul,
finaly cries.
The ice begins to melt,
as her heart thaws,
it breaks.
See a future,
thru her eyes.
A past filled with lies.
Without an umbrella,
to sheild her from rain.
No handsome hero,
to take her pain.
Far too many wasted years.
Safer now,
she cries those tears.
A new begining,
A place to start.
A life time to mend
her broken heart.
