Wondering Tears [poem]

These days, I keep sighing,
And no I don’t know why
It’s not pain these eyes are crying
They’re too lonely anymore to look up at the sky…

Alone, I’m wondering aimlessly,
Trying to pick a goal and protect my dream
I’ll put it in God’s hands and see
What happens, what it’ll turn out to be

I’m not sure what to call it anymore
But when I look at you, my shrouded eyes begin to clear
The tears dry up and float away from the shore
And everything I know and love, become more endear

Wondering, I sigh once again…
Why was I sighing, why was I crying?
It wasn’t the loneliness, but the hidden pain
These tears that have for too long been stinging

Wash up and evaporate to the clear blue sky,
Shining vibrantly as I blink my eyes and sigh
It was you all along; it’s why I wrote this here song
To see your face shine as brightly as it did long ago

I can’t keep this sighing,
It’s myself I keep reminding
There’s always a new tomorrow
That will wash up on these dry shores of sorrow

End
