If I Would Just Listen
My tears have turned to dust
I have no more left to cry
I weep and weep and weep
But still my face remains dry
You see, I have cried tears to last a life time
And now I have no more
I have withered under the weight of my sorrows
Remembering who I was before
When my body wasn’t etched with scars
A permanent reminder of the Pain
And my wings weren’t broken nor bruised
I could fly through wind or rain
But now my heart is a graveyard
That doesn’t see the light of day
If I could just listen deep down
I would hear a voice say
It’s not about what you been through
Or what tears you may have cried
What matters is that you lived through it
And you still have a light inside
You’re heart might be a grave yard,
But look closely, and you’ll see
This grave yard heart has fertile soil
To support the growth of flowers and trees
So keep on going beautiful
You’re almost there
The seeds have been planted in the cracks of your heart
And they’ll erase all memory of despair
