Another Birthday

My heart is crying.

My eyes remain dry!

The tears cannot run

I do not know why.

I wish they flowed!

I wish they had at least tried!

They would help me to

Soothe my heart and eye

I want to loudly shout,

Shed tears and cry

Another birthday!

How did the years fly!

I keep blowing your candles,

Sending you kisses across the sky
