My Share of Tears...

Years along in rain and sun
I had kept them safe and sound
You stole away my share of tears
Left me just grief profound

In blinding light of your delight
In deafening din of blight
I nurtured them with love and pain 
They helped in in my plight

In fading rays of an yesterday
In darkness of the night
I warmed them up in hearth of heart
And held them close and tight

I had held them in within my eyes
And did not not let them go
I waited for the worthy time
That I would let them flow

The wait it seems is far too long
The road ahead seems dead
The eyes are parched so is the heart
I have not a drop to shed

I cannot see in the darkness deep
Today when I look around
You stole away my share of tears
Left me just grief profound
