teardrop from the sky

teardrop from the sky
by the winds it was lifted
invisible to the eye
down the heavens it drifted

it kept falling and falling
'til it fell into Love
so delightedly enthralling
greatest gift from above

then all crashed down
the only life it ever knew
no more love it found
and so burst into dew

some time went by
the drop lifted high
just wanting to die
unable to fly

the solace of darkness it sought
back at the start
staring at the dot
a rip down its heart

cold crept in bit by bit
and started to freeze
it threw no fit
as it chilled in the breeze

then it became a star
one that shined so bright
then it saw somewhere afar
its shining knight

i'll wait said the drop
a star it was now
besides there's enough
i'm plenty endowed

so there it still stands
as each second goes by
somewhere in distant lands
the teardrop in the sky
