One Last Tear

One final stain on the cotton pillowcase
One lesson learned from a million mistakes
One who’s concerned with the empty place
One who believed she knew better

One summertime lover unsure of self-worth
One who’s besotted by lover’s curse
One who took nothing and gave in return
One who would love, but he wouldnt let her

One tear they share…
One lesson to get ’em there
One blessing they’ll never take
One moment, they walk away
