Let These Tears Flow
it might look like I'm brave,
strong hearted, and I'm beginning
to be a man,
when my stars fell before my very eyes
and all hope seemed lost.
it might look like I'm what it you think
when my eyes refused to bleed tears
when father was lowered into the ground,
even though I knew I had no other.
you are wrong,
I do weep.
I do weep within me,
way more that when they flow out.
my pains are trice my smiles.
my grievances the size of the sun.
the tears of sorrow wants to flow,
but they don't.
I struggle at times to cry,
but all I get are just one and two droplets
my face is dry.
mother says I'm turning to a criminal,
how could I?
so, dear eyes I use to see,
I pray to you,
let these tears flow.
