Just Cry

I see you standing there
so strong and true
silhouetted in the soft starlight
You take a step forward
and I see your eyes shinning
Not with the happiness
that I'm so accustomed to seeing
But with tears that should have fallen long ago
I gently take you in my arms
and tenderly kiss your tears away
We sit for a long time
You stop sobbing
and your breathing grows steady
I realize that you're asleep
As I lovingly gaze down at you
I see just how strong you are
And I know that no matter
how strong or how weak someone is
sometimes you just need to cry
