A Tearful Song

I still hear your name in the silent night… It drifts away from my teary sight… I couldn’t stand or breathe on my own… The same old story with the pages torn… But you went away leaving me to be strong… A masking smile and a tearful song… My strength sits in my words… All through the day it screams to be heard…
