When I Have Tears

When I have tears
I know that I have loved
Beyond the natural call of duty
When I have tears
I know that there is more to life
When I have tears
I have discovered that sometimes
Tears can be like your only friends
When I have tears
I have discovered that sometimes
You can fight the tears as if they were your enemies
When I have tears
I know I must rise up and fight on
When I have tears
I know that the present is not final!
The shadow of uncertainty is an opportunity for a leap of faith
When I have tears
The fears ahead of me are destroyed!
