You cannot cry with your eyes closed
Not a single drop will fall
When you cannot see the things that hurt your heart
When the places that will always be empty are shut out
You cannot cry with your eyes closed
Not one will escape
When the colors of beautiful things cannot follow you in
When not holding things you let go doesn’t affect your balance
You cannot cry with your eyes closed
Not really
When you won’t let yourself remember what you’re trying not to name
When denial is just a river in Egypt
You cannot cry with your eyes closed
Because that wouldn’t really be fair
When you’re trying to hold it in, your fears apart and it all together
When....
You cannot cry when your eyes are closed
Not when you are standing in the rain

I like this one lass....
a wee sad ...
sometimes crying washes it all away little gypsy.
Bless your heart,
