Bittersweet
Tears ran down her face
Mimicking raindrops on glass
Flavored with sweetness.

Short but sweet (literally)! Poetry is something I have always been interested in, but I’ve never sat down and tried to write it.

I believe all writing simply requires one to sit down and write! Thank you.

The last line was the hook. I like how it’s short but every sentence has a meaning and overall it’s something new. Great work 😊
