tear drops
Crying eye secretions
Tear drops are the small drops of liquid that fall from the eyes when crying.
The term appears in poetic or sentimental contexts more often than the single word tears: tear drops on my pillow.
A teardrop shape—rounded at the bottom, pointed at the top—describes jewelry, guitar picks, and facial tattoos.
Also spelled as one word: teardrop.
