Tear In My Eye Poem by Brian Ely

A tear in my eye
A tear in the fabric of time
Coastal drifts
Timeless rifts
We are all drifting off course
Of course, tilted...

A tear on my cheek
A tear and so bleak
Tidal drifts
Timeless rifts
Same old drifting off course
Of course, tilted...

A tear in my eye
A smile on my face
A hope in my heart
A mighty good pace
A mighty good idea
A mighty good place

Yet this tear in my eye
Makes me ask,
'Time to say goodbye? '
