Life Of A Teardrop

Stop berating those tears that roll down your cheeks

They have as much a right to be seen

And heard as your breaking heart

You have been labeled as a strong woman

One who faces everything like a wall

But who would know the courage behind those moments

When a wall is about to fall apart

 

The hurt from a failure

Be it in love, life, or anything at all

Though scorching when touched

Will get soaked into your being

As a story that on not many ears will fall

 

So let them live out their moment of glory

And love them till they get etched into your memory

If someone reminds you that strong hearts never bleed

You set them right and say they have no idea,

That it's only where a heart bleeds that strength pays any heed.
