Tears Upon the Ground

It was when I caught you on a day, When I know you didn’t want to be found. You had seen the shock on my face, When I noticed all those tears upon the ground. Nobody could ever predict, Another’s tolerance for pain. One person’s world may be sunny, When someone else’s world is full of rain. There is no question your trying to fight it, You’re showing all of your strength. Did you know it’s not a sign of weakness? To open up with someone you can talk with at length. So don’t drown in those tears, Go ahead and take my hand. Really all you need sometimes, Is the one in front of you who will stick to the end. I can’t believe how many tears, That have collected on the ground. Looking at so many tears, I figure I would have heard a sound. No I never heard a whimper, I never heard you cry. It’s when I looked up at your face, I had seen all that strength there in your eyes. I know sometimes in this world, It has a funny way to pat you on the back. You try everything you can to do things right, Yet you still feel like you are under attack. It can be hard to keep the balance, When pushed to such a fine line. With so many questions you have left unanswered, Praying you’re not left to hang out there for all of time. The grind can be tough so take my hand, So I can finally help you out. I can still see that strength but you are weakening, I know you’re full of courage, and that I would never doubt. In life there are always points along the way, When fear and pain will surprisingly come around. I can stay with you for as long as you need, We’ll gather up those tears upon the ground. I can’t believe how many tears, That have collected on the ground. Looking at so many tears, I figure I would have heard a sound. No I never heard a whimper, I never heard you cry. It’s when I looked up at your face, I had seen all that strength there in your eyes.
