    If You Cry A Tear

    IF YOU CRY A TEAR

     

    If you cry a tear tonight

    cry a tear for me,

    if you pray a prayer tonight

    pray a prayer for me.

    For my prayers

    are full of frozen tears

    my heart is growing cold .

    My dreams are full

    of foolish fears

    my soul is growing old .

    This world

    is making me cold

    walls grow around my heart.

    My dreams

    on how life and love should be

    have fallen all apart.

    So if you cry

    a tear tonight,

    cry a tear for me.

    Cry me

    a soul felt tear

    one to set me free.

    This damned world

    has made me

    too cold to cry my own.

    And if you

    pray a prayer tonight

    pray a prayer for me.

    For I have no one

    to prayer to,

    and my spirit stands

    all alone.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
