I've had to hide my tears from her
I've had to look brave
So she wouldn't see how much I grieve

Looking down on the sidewalk
Scuffing his feet
Pacing
Back and forth
He looks up

Looking for a friendly face

over my home,
unleashing raindrops
falling like the teardrops

My bags are all packed,

With new found courage
I flee, optimistic . . . more
