The Teardrop

It gives off a signal everyone knows
It shows the way to the heart that glows.
It's there in happiness and in sadness as well
It puts out a beam of frowns and smiles that tell.
They tell a story of a love that's gone bad
They tell a story of someone whose life was made glad.
They always leave your cheeks turning red
They stain your pillowcases that are in your bed.
When it falls to the ground it makes no noise to be heard
Sometimes these teardrops come on without even a small word.
You try and fight them back because you don't want to cry
You want to be strong and show people that your gonna try
Crying these teardrops is a function of life
It helps to release the frustration, and sadness
It also helps release the happiness and gladness.
