I DON’T CRY
My tears never fall
My cry is never shed
No one to hear it
Just the one that bares it
Grief anger sorrow
A pain of some kind
No one to pity
But mankind
My tears never fall
My cry is never shed
I keep them to myself
Till everyone’s in bed
No tears of mine
Shall you see
This I promise truthfully
No tear of mine shall I cry
This I promise till I die
No cry shall you hear
Because my heart I will not share
No red eyes and runny nose
Because my face
Will stay closed
