Tears Unknown
Tears unknown,
Tears grown.
Tears that stream down my face,
falling slowly out of place.
Tears of memory,
of a time spent.
Tears of you,
the person I never new.
Tears of a man,
who's hands,
where empty for far too long.
Tears of being alone.
Tears of dinner,
that we never ate together.
Tears of shoes,
that we never laced.
Tears of a bike,
that we never used.
Tears of a boat,
one we never float.
Tears of fireflies,
that we never caught.
Tears of school clothes,
that we never bought.
Tears of a pool,
that we never swam.
Tears of not knowing,
how I am.
Tears of a man,
who I never knew.
Tears of a man,
who never took me to school.
Tears of a father...
unknown.
