Holding back the tears

Updated: Jan 21, 2023

There are moments when I can cry out loud

But most of the time I keep it in

It’s easier this way, at least for me

But tears have a way of coming out again


Sometimes it happens

Usually out of the blue

A memory will pop up

And I’ll think about you


Despite how tight I close my eyes

Or change my train of thought

The tears fall hard and fast

So fast they can’t be stopped


I find myself time and time again

Holding back the tears

And I know deep inside my heart

I will be doing this year after year
