The Tears We Cry

The Tears We Cry 

The tears we cry

Are the fears we try

To conceal in life

But burst to light 

Each time we strive 

For good

But strife 

We reap

It grips

And

Rips our hearts 

We cuddle back in fear

And weep there bitterly 

Yet eagerly 

We once lived to grow 

And tow 

The life in store 

Now has knocked us to the floor
