Catching Your Tears

It rained today Shadows appeared later Waiting behind the sun Clouds were fuzzy and fun You were standing there, and I Was waiting to catch your tears When the shadows moved The sun said hello Bright as can be Just a little yellow Well...it was beaming As it illuminated the sky It rained today and you had misty eyes Life had you by the collar By all your hopes and dreams Your blogs and words of scholar Still heaviness raced in your mind Too much thinking and not enough time For you...I was waiting to catch your tears Memories of loved ones and fears Life lessons of love yous That changed you forever Made you think about the what ifs The shouldas wouldas and couldas If I had this and that Baby your wearing too many hats What about us what about our skies of blue and teal Muted ambers and bright golden years Of loving and not leaving when all seemed thin Life does have meaning Its not just supposed to end I..I'm still here catching your tears When you have no mountains to climb Spent your last dime I'm still here waiting in line for a chance to Help you change the world See things in colors never explored Tell stories with characters like us Loves likes and you and never making a fuss Reasons unknowned why we do what we do Questions you ask never crazy come from truths Cause when it rains again and the sun is hiding you I will be there always to Catch your tears whether it rains I will catch your tears...
