Sometimes I Cry

Sometimes when I am alone 

I cry because I am on my own

The tears I cry are bitter and warm

They flow with life but take no form

I cry because my heart is torn 

And I find it difficult to carry on

If I had an ear to confide in

I would cry among my treasured friends

But who do you know that stops that long

to help another carry on

The world moves fast and it would rather

pass you by

Than to stop and see what makes you cry

It is painful and sad and sometimes I cry

And no one cares about why
