Sometimes I Cry

Sometimes I cry deep in the night
Difficult somedays just to get by
Tears are a message from God within
That we all yearn for a Heavenly blessing
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I laugh
A heart bleeds, when pushed too far
A listening ear, someone to confide
Goes a long way when you need a guide
Sometimes I cry deep in the haze
Awash with sunlight to brighten my days
They say to cry lessens the load
Unburdens the weight as you walk the road
This life goes by in a blink of an eye
Enjoy, I try and...sometimes I cry

Can remember fondly the days of summer
How we all scurried to the green pastures
Permission was granted by our elders

The streets have changed so much now
Gone are the tree lined adorned pavements
And all the folks who sat on their garden walls
gossiping about nothing in particular

Remember well swimming in July
By the beach, by the pool, by your side
Fresh water, cool summer breeze
Mindful of the coming Autumn Leaves

Reminiscing about earlier days
They seem the same, they seem different
Life was for each every other
As our bond grew much stronger
