Tears In The Window

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
