Tears

These raindrops that we know as tears 
Release or pain and free our fears
And when our lives bring troubles near
Here come the tears, Ah! Yes the tears
Though sometimes people can’t see clear
We have to rise to face our fears
But when your pride hurts someone dear
Down come the tears, so abrupt the tears
All times aren’t happy and full of cheer
Sometimes the sadness just appears
Like breaking up or death of peers
This brings the tears – indeed the tears
The raindrops that we know as tears
Show our strain, caused over years
17 sometimes sticks in like a spear
And with it tears, Oh! Tears, tears, tears
