It
is
in
her
black
fragile
nostalgic
vulnerable
eyes. A teardrop
originates, while she
waits for the billet-doux
from her beau. With the
resonance of reminiscence,
residing on pupil, a droplet of
tear escapes the lashes, rolls
down her cheeks and kisses her
lips, flowing, and falling into
the rivulet-forming not a real
oasis but a deceptive mirage,
tranquility lost some-
where…..only hope
shines softly in
her eyes

That was bloody amazing!! I never knew such a genre existed – a shape poem? This probably entailed twice the creativity that a regular poet would require. Kudos to your effort!!!
All the best for the A to Z Challenge. Do drop by mine,
Cheers,
