INVITING MY TEARS

My heart was filled with sad emotions
My mind lost track of time
A storm of sorrow floods my soul
Inviting my tears to come
Torrential rains and thunder
Winds of grief and pain
When will this storm of sorrow pass
When will I smile again
Peeking through clouds of sadness
A ray of happiness breaks through
Inviting my tears to come
My eyes are flooded with the memories of you
My smile was forged in the battle of grief
It struggled through my tears
It fought valiantly, the storms of sorrow
Though it took me many sad years
