Grace Hays - These Tears I Cry

these tears i cry
pour down like rain
covering my cheeks
as they run down my face
know one can really see
the pain hidden deep within
buried deep in my heart and soul
these tears burn and sting
as they pour out
trying to release all of my
pain and fears that i have locked away
wanting to know more about me and my past
but always running into obstacles that last
crying myself to sleep
never knowing if the closure i seek
will come in the mail
or as your knock on my door
searching for you on the internet
even through my home state's adoption agency
wondering why you gave up
when we loved you so
oh mother.....is there anyway
you can ever dry these tears i cry
