Her Tears

Smiling overcomes suffering
Like a flower grows
After a new moon night 
Smiling wipes her tears
She stands up to admire the dawn
The new light encourages her 
To escape the troubled days
In the long chilly nights
Since her first love ran away

Smiling overcomes suffering
Tears residue remains while  
Sparkling eyes got out of misery  
The dull nights brought away
All the anxious times
Tears have restored her life  
Strengthened her spirit    
Heightened her faith
