Forget Me Not by Kristen Marzolf

Five teardrops huddled together Five teardrops watered
with joy;
Five eternal drops on my face and in his hand, Five
shared so long ago.
Tears fresh when love was new, When love blossomed.
Tears bright as our eyes for each other, Incapable of
dimming.
Five teardrops frozen forever Five teardrops crisp
with time;
Five eternal drops in my wrinkled hand, Five enduring
Life and Death.
