A thousand tears for them
The lost, the heartbroken
The angry, the neglected
A thousand tears for you
Plus one more
For being all those things
But never giving up
As the tears fall,
My love for you grows stronger
As I lay with my eyes open
They fill and finally empty
Leaving me,
The tears are my emotions
Kept inside for no one to see
But for my pillow to absorb
Until the next night
When I think of them again
A thousand more tears shed
And then,
A thousand plus one more
Because you are strong
And I am not
But I will be strong for you
