Tears could speak
Through a drop or two
Trickling down a cheek
And a story is told
Of deep seated feelings
A story of hope
A story of hate
A story of love
A story of triumph
Not in words or pictures
Not in songs or drama
Could a story be well told
Tears could speak
Of
Fears
Regret
Pain
Remorse
Not in thousand pictures
Not in thousand words
Could such a story
Be well expressed
