I cannot remember or recall
The last time I cried real
Tears of Joy!

I cry all the time
I cry often
I am not scared of the emotional
Ride I travel on every day

But this morning I opened my inbox
Opened a Youtube
Sweet Angel singing to me
After a week of anxiety

Fear, excitement, lack of sleep
Unable to work
On unpaid leave

Before I could even stop
I had a river of tears
River of Joy
Flowing down my cheeks

If this is the only
Reward I ever will earn
It is enough for me
It is more than enough
My heart is overflowing
Causing Tears of Joy
To run down my cheeks!
