ETERNAL TEARS

I cry
... for that which was
and couldn't be.

I cry
... for that which is
because of what was.

I cry
... for that which
cannot be.

I cry
... for those who are
... who will never be.

I cry
... still
... and then
I cry
... again.

I cry
... tears veiling
that which I pray
... blinded faith
prevailing
... I will not see.
