One Poem by Josh Rauch

99

99 teardrops fall
Each one stains my face and hands
Clothes suffer one in the same

Deeper and deeper I feel lonely
I only know what is happening
Each beat in my heart is pain

99 teardrops drip
Each one never fails to seep
Blurs and reddens my eyes

Stings my soul slowly
Each drop flickers a piece of heart
I feel weak and forgotten

99 teardrops fall
But the final one won’t
To shed this tear would be hopeless
