One Last Tear

Let me cry one last tear, 
may the last roll down my cheek. 
It holds the key to unbind my wings 
and make me free within. 

Let me cry one last tear, 
may the last fall down my trembling chin -
the last of all bad memories,tremble upon my chin,
and finally, dissolve to the ground. 

Let me cry one last tear,
may it wash down all heartless feelings - 
then, with my wings unbound, I shall fly away, 
In a new life, where I shall stand strong for my side.
