Tears bring joy
even with the sour taste
from a green hearted soul
laying out eggs out of misery
when rainy days find him outside
cold days catch him under the sun
stormy winds embrace him at the door
tears do bring joy
in a wet wedding dress on a sultry weather
getting married to oneself
both halfway in a black suits
tears have joy
they are warm to my heart
they are warmer that a thug's hands
tears are like a pal in need
they keep coming and stay
I fancy tears
like dancing in the rain
it brings zilch but joy
who are you to judge a sad woman?
where do you come from that you condemn the heart of a neglected woman?
instead being her intoxicated wine
make her bath her misery in it
wash her thoroughly
without letting her leave by the gate
lest she never returns
for cars will end her misery and,
those tears will be gone
those tears that bring joy.
