Tears In The Window
Cracked glass in window panes
Lonely whistles of countryside trains
Curtains pulled to dampen the glow
Cannot hide tears in the window
Peering out is a weary old soul
Betraying scars of confidence stole
While denying what pain wants to show
Try’s to wipe away tears in the window
Loneliness and fear fall like Winter snow
That melt in the Spring and start the flow
Deep canyons run through the heart below
Carved by time and tears in the window
Closer inspection from the windowsill
Realizing what those panes really reveal
The subconscious mind begins to know
The reason for tears in the window
