My Tears

These tears I shed, I’m not ashamed For love they flow, just so free I know they’ll stop, one day soon But right now friend, I cannot see I heard the news from your wife My wife and I feel awfully sad The kids will miss you too my friend In fact, everyone just feels so bad We knew your illness held you hostage But also hoped and prayed you’d heal Sadly, my friend, you had left us With sadness then to always feel I’ll look upon your house each morning When I go off to work each day But know this friend; I’ll take you with me For in our hearts you’ll always stay I promise to look in on her I know she’s burdened now with weight The grief can be so overbearing But we’ll look in without delay So, know this friend, all will be fine For we’re just saddened by this time
