In remembrance of a friend…
Another anniversary, birthday or just a day
celebrated with an empty chair
And a silent tear shed
For those no longer there
Be they brother, lover or just a friend
Their memory lives on with every story told
And every tear dropp shed
So dry your tears and hold your head with pride
Even though the hurt you feel so deep inside
My never end, It will soften with time
And the comfort of a friend

A Silent Tear
the voice inside me
is crying out for help
i am trying to reach them
but no one seems to care
sadness, loneliness, and helplessness
oozing from every part
yet they don't see i am hurt
i look around for a sign
a sign of interest, and sympathy
light, and hope
but darkness seems to over power everything
why does everything have to said
why can't they see the tears shed
insanity taking over
suffocation heightening
and all i can do
is shed a tear
that one cannot hear or see
a tear of silence
a silent tear.........

Sorry Friend
Sorry friend i hurt you
sorry friend i was insensitive
sorry friend i made you feel bad
sorry friend i never selected my words carefully
friend it take courage
to face a friend and tell them they hurt you
it might not take a day to shed off everything
please bear and help me to shed off.

Friends
Just sit yourself down friend
Pull up a chair friend
There aint nobody here friend
But the people you need
Roll yourself a joint friend
Empty your head friend
Make yourself at home friend
This is where you belong
Chorus:
Put your feet up on the fire
If it makes you feel much better
Have a glass of homegrown wine
Dont you think it tastes fine
Tear you away friend
On a planet to space friend
Faster than you can think friend
Youll be there before you know

Don't Shed A Tear
Cab fare to nowhere is what you are
A white line to an exit sign is what you are
Oh but I saw in you, now I see through
Don't shed a tear for me, my life won't end without you
Long as the night will be, the sun will rise without you
A locked door on a candy store is what you are
A slim chance in tight pants is what you are
All that I loved you for, I want it more
Don't shed a tear for me, my life won't end without you
Long as the night will be, the sun will rise without you
You are giving what I'm not taking
I'm not missing what we ain't making
Oh but I saw in you, now I see through
Don't shed a tear for me, my life won't end without you
Long as the night will be, the sun will rise without you
Don't shed a tear for me, my life won't end without you
Long as the night will be, the sun will rise without you
Don't shed no tears,
I don't need a thing

A Silent Tear
Dreams shattered,
Hopes low,
All i wish for,
Is to know,
'Do you care? ',
Because i can't feel,
Anything anymore,
All my wishes and all my care,
Were never met,
Not even shared,
All the time blindfolded i lived,
Not a hurt,
Not a feeling of despair,
All the words,
Meant nothing,
All that meant,
Was that you were there,
But now i see,
The whole emptiness,
I see the holes of despair,
I feel at last,
I feel hurt,
And in my grief,
I dropp a silent tear,
One little tear is all there is,
After all these six years that we have been,
Still i wish and still i care,
I wish that you are still there,
And i want you to know,
That I'll always be there,
Forever and ever,
With one SILENT TEAR of despair.

We're Through
I should be better off without you
You take a pride in making me blue
I'm telling you my friend
It's got to be the end
We're through
I told you time and time again
You told me he was just a friend
But I found out some way
Ive seen him every day
With you
'Cause you never treat me tenderly
You got no reason for leaving me
'Cause I can't leave you alone
'Cause I knew from the start
You'd be tearing me apart
Sooner or later
'Cause you never treat me tenderly
You got no reason for leaving me
'Cause I can't leave you alone
'Cause I knew from the start
You'd be tearing me apart
Sooner or later
And now my crying days are through
No longer shed a tear for you
I'm telling you my friend
It's got to be the end
We're through
We're through
We're through

I'll See You Everyday
There's not a day that passes
when I don't shed a tear for you.
A tear for the happy memories
and a tear for the sad ones too.
I try to hold back the tears
when I see the smile on your beautiful face,
but then I see the pain you suffered,
and a tear is no disgrace.
It seems like only yesterday
that I kissed you and said goodbye,
but I see you everyday of my life,
and it still makes me cry.
The time of parting isn't the end,
and it won't be until I've passed away,
but until that separation finally comes,
I'll see you everyday.

Oh! Breathe Not His Name
Oh! breathe not his name, let it sleep in the shade,
Where cold and unhonour'd his relics are laid:
Sad, silent, and dark, be the tears that we shed,
As the night-dew that falls on the grass o'er his head.
But the night-dew that falls, though in silence it weeps,
Shall brighten with verdure the grave where he sleeps;
And the tear that we shed, though in secret it rolls,
Shall long keep his memory green in our souls.

The Single Tear Drop of Peace
The Single Tear Drop of Peace
What if all the tear drops, of all the world,
Were added together for only one year?
Peace would spread near and far
With every rainstorm everywhere.
We would have a river of peace,
A pool of tranquility across all oceans.
All seashores would rest in silent prayer
From those whose tears washed hatred away.
All death and destruction would vanish from here
With each and every tear dropp this day.
No more would we kill each other.
No more would we hurt our brother.
No more would wars rain down upon us,
Instead, peace would reign across all lands.
It all started one day with but a single
Tear Drop of Peace in Your Eye

True Friend and True Lover
You were always my true friend and also my true lover. I always believed in you and cherished you more than anyone else in this entire world. Nobody else I ever loved more than you. Do not shed your tears since every dropp of it is truly precious. Save your tears by covering them with a smile. You deserve to be happy so always be so. True friend and true lover, forever you will remain of mine.

Tears
Eyes are adored by everyone
but tears have their own tale to tell
understands none, the anguish & pain
of tears that are confined to the cell.
Flow of tears lightens one
none, call it shock
dropp of a tear is heartache
repressing tears, anger’s knock.
Sensitivity makes tears to flow
heartless has no tears to show
absence of tears making redundant, as it should
youthfulness and charming childhood.
Naked is the truth, tears make us weep
a lover for beloved, one loves so deep
mother’s feelings bring pearl like tears
sowing emotions, tears we reap.
Pointless, to shed tears for nothing
never squander tears for everything
tears denote emotional distress
a famine, a quack or extreme stress.
Imprisoned tears whenever freed
none is left who doesn’t grieve
shed the tears, but of happiness
and cheerfully, not of sadness.

share the time again
I spend with you
A friend is always good to have
But a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down at me
I dream of you at times when you're by my side
Dream you're not just like you are
So troubled and doubling my pain
Just one more tear
You shed for me
I wish i could climb inside your mind
And spend some time and hug and hold you
And mold you into what i'd like
But no i can't do this
Just a kiss to spend a while by you
And your familiar smile and voice
I lay awake
Then you lean back and smiling
On you
Most everything you do for me, i say
And the while let's make our way
And feel warm
In the middle of this storm with you
Like an angel
Oh, what the friends say is good, is right
I say
When you were again
And you were my friend
Before the lie
This one
Say yes i do
And with you
Sometimes
But while i do my best
With all the rest i leave to you
Can't wait for the hour
And when two things become this
All this trouble from a kiss from you, i'll do it
And when you come up smiling
And i'm thrown
Into i get a little storm with you, i'll do it
Always
Lover, line up and yeah
The road to you is long and i've been on it for a while
And a need a warm embrace
I'll take a break
And say i want to leave you awake
Always
I feel tired...

I Can Only Hope
Maybe one day your world
Will crash around you
And what you wanted
Will disappear forever
I can only hope
You'll know what I went through
Maybe one day you'll feel
Used and abandoned
And your empty heart
Will ache unstoppably
I can only hope
You'll know what I felt
Maybe one day your life
Won't seem worth living
And every moment you shed
Will hurt more and more
I can only hope
You'll know my emptiness
Maybe one day your eyes
Will feel dry as sand
And all the tears you cry
Will sting as they fall
I can only hope
You'll know how much I cried
Maybe one day you'll wonder
Why nothing seems right
And everything you try to do
Will always be a reminder
I can only hope
You'll know my memories
Maybe one day your hurt
Won't seem to go away
And all the days that pass
Will be filled with aching
I can only hope
You'll know the pain I felt
Maybe one day you'll know
Every tear I shed
And every feeling I had
Was because of you
I can only hope
You'll know what you put me through

Angel Time
Angel, I can see myself
Angel, won’t you feel for me,
From your heart?
Do return my heart to me
I’m already hurt
It was an accident unfortunate
Angel, threw me like a man timed
Why amuse yourself in such way
No don’t insist,
Lay me down on the ground softly softly
Don’t remove my head hurts much too much
You never return it
Well I wouldn’t miss it
I shed no tears, broken me
It's my peace of mind
You'll never know,
Now inside and outside are matching one,
Why amuse yourself
Will it break your wings
Will you shed no tear for broken me
My Angel Time,
My Angel.

Tear Drops Of Joy
Tear dropp of joy when a baby is bron
Tear dropp of joy when your mother and father tell you that they love you
Tear dropp of joy when my boyfriend bring me a dozen of roses
Tear dropp of joy when I see two people holding hands
Tear drops of joy when all the family come over for a sunday dinner
and I stand back and watch everyone enjoy every one
A Tear come down with joy.....

Testament
I feel I'd like to be alone
with you, friend, if you'll stay:
my time on earth is nearly gone;
at least that's what they say.
And you'll be going home on leave:
mind you… what odds? I do believe,
to tel the truth, not many
will give a brass halfpenny.
If anyone should ask of you…
well, anyone at all…
you tell them where that bullet flew
right through the chest, one ball:
'He died with honour for the Tsar'
- and say how bad our surgeons are -
'and to his habitation
he sent his salutation.'
You'll likely find that my old dad
and mother both are dead…
I wouldn't want to make them sad
or send them tears to shed;
but if you find that they're all right,
just say I haven't time to write,
the regiment's campaigning
and there's no use complaining.
They've got a woman neighbour there?
God knows how long ago
we parted!… She will hardly care
to ask you.. Let it go,
tell her the truth, leave out no part,
no need to spare an empty heart;
she'll shed a tear or two there…
but it means nothing to her!

Shed A Tear
Youve been talking in your sleep again.
About the way youve been pulling my heart strings
When I think Im on my feet again,
I fall down,
Oh I fall down
At forty seven park avenue
Loud is the singing down in the bar room
So lonely
I wish I was in paradise
The broken lover in me, girl
Has been fixed in my memory
Lay your love, lay your love on me
I lost a little love this way
I find it in my heart to say, yeah
Im gonna shed a tear for you today
For love, love I gave away
I gave away
Youve been making those eyes again
Down in the city and up in your ivory tower
One day soon youre gonna reach out and call my name
Yeah, the broken lover in me girl
Has been fixed in my memory
Lay your love, lay your love on me
I lost a little love this way
I find it in my heart to say, yeah
Im gonna shed a tear for you today
For love I gave away
I lost a little love this way
I find it in my heart to say, yeah
Im gonna shed a tear for you today
For love, love I gave away
Oh, I gave away
Oh, I gave away
Loves got me down on my knees again
Theres no easy, no easy way out
Theres no easy way out
I lost a little love this way
I find it in my heart to say, yeah
Im gonna shed a tear for you today
For love I gave away,
I lost a little love this way
I find it in my heart to say, oh baby
Im gonna shed a tear for you today
For love I gave away
I gave away
I gave away
I gave away

Every Tear
I lost my true love today
It was a bittersweet moment,
But mostly bitter
As i am crying i want you to know that every tear
I shed was for you
These tears are shed because
i love you and now i'm losing you
Every tear that i shed you will be in my thoughts
As i am crying i want you to know that i love you
Always have and always will

When a Child Has Been Told
When a child has been told
Never shed a tear
The small child can only
Every bow their head in fear
And hope and pray they
Don't come back to silence them
They often live in fear
They learn not to cry
When a child has been told
Keep a secret
For if they do they will be punished
For telling lies
They bow their head in fear
Hoping they will not
Come back and take their life
They learn not to speak
When a child has been told
Close your eyes
All they can do is tremble
As the touch of evil hands
Slowly destroys their soul
Never to burn again
They learn not to care
When a child has been told
No one really care's
They sit alone and ponder
Will anyone believe?
If I just spoke
If I just shed a tear
Will anyone really care?
They learn not to feel
All I ask of you now
Is let them speak
Let them cry
Because it means they are alive

A Poem On Obsequies To A Tear
I with utmost care
Place this tear
On the funeral pyre
Don't look down
Upon a tear shed
Don't you see
Its heart still throbbing?
Its eyes beyond your grasp?
The tear still pulsating
And its breath filling the lungs?
It has many tales to recount
Connecting you to me
And us to him, her and them
Come, pay you respects
Before the pyre is lit
Before another tear is shed
And placed on the pyre.
