when did i see angels cry
i saw an angel cry when
a poor man asked for help
but was denied
I saw an angel cry
when a lovers heart
was broken
and devoured by despair
i saw an angel cry
when two best friends
had a fight, said unnecessary words
and didn't talk for a couple of weeks
i saw an angel cry when
a husband and a wife kept secrets
from each other
thinking no one will know, no one will get hurt
but you see their tears
are not like the tears
that you and i
sometimes cry
their tears are much
more bitter
each tear is stained
with a grief that pierces their hearts
because they saw what
we could of been
what we could be
that is the cause of their tears
they saw us as people
who would give a helping hand
our hearts filled with warmth
caring, and compassion
they saw us as the lovers who
loved with a pure heart
who would never
hurt each other with words
they saw us as the friends
who would stop at nothing
to help a friend in need
to lift them up, with a kind word
they saw as the husbands and wives
who poured out their
hearts to each other
who would be together through it all
their tears have not yet dried
because when they look at us
they see such
a lack of love
