The Tears of Death
The tears of death flowed in great streams
Of broken spirits and broken dreams
The tears of death in it’s mighty flow
Has taken the person those who love her know
the tears of death break life’s schemes
of empty hearts and life’s in-betweens
the tears of death water seeds to sow
no one like her found, above or below.
the tears of death flow effortlessly it seems
for each one of them, her smile beams
the tears of death each one that glows
her patience and kindness, her spirit it shows
the tears of death will never come between
her joy and her hope in her field of dreams
the tears of death in it’s mighty flow
can’t have the person, those who love her know.
