WHAT MAKES A WOMAN CRY?

 

 

Suddenly a love says goodbye, a reason why does not matter, she cries,

 

A husband lost and gone away as he fades into the mist, dies as she cries.

 

Off to war a son grows to be a man, battle does not make a man, cry does she,

 

A daughter becomes a woman and wears the ring of her love, no more a little girl.

 

Life goes on as a woman again finds the love that heals the loneliness inside,

 

She cries when a man speaks of his love, a ring on her finger as life moves on.

 

Raised by a woman, a mother now much older and wise, a mother dies, she cries,

 

Taught by a father morals and the values passed on by a grandfather she knew.

 

What makes a woman cry,? Is it happiness found or sadness suddenly found,

 

Could it be a friends heart break or a pet that passes on, cry in the night, she cries.

 

What makes a woman cry,? many things great and sad, a beautiful day, a tear it makes.

    I love this. The sentiment is very touching.
    “Life goes on as a woman again finds the love that heals the loneliness inside” in particular stands out to me. It’s hopeful, and poignant at the same time.

    However “cry’s” isn’t a word. It’s “cries”.

    Doesn’t change the fact that this is beautiful. 🙂
