I once knew a woman who never showed any emotion to anyone, always so tough and hidden from the outside world. Then, one day, I saw her cry.
One thousand times I’ll taste the tear that lingered in your eye–
A precious, hidden treasure that drifted slowly by.
To savor such a secret has stolen me away–
I will always cherish the “you” I found that day.
A moment of your sacrifice, a kiss from your sweet pain–
And though it wasn’t shed for me, I will never be the same.
