The Loneliest Teardrop

The life we choose the choices we make Knowing how much to give knowing how much to take Now this equation is not simple at least not for me to ascribe For a lifetime worth of pain and not once have I cried It's not remedies or reason for this affliction which I seek For I am pleased with the joys I have given while not needing to weep Yet I cant help but wonder though as yet I have not tried Would my life had been much different were I able to cry For I have seen the results of tears when they are freely shed How embraces would soon follow with soft strokes to ones head Now I can love and be tender without much effort or strain Yet I am unable to give comfort when tears fall like the rain But I will always be loving and Gods gifts to me I will share And maybe the day I meet him in heaven will be the day I shed my tear
