Crying Eyes

Beautiful crying eyes,
Why so sad?
Why are you crying those tears,
Tears of the pain? Don’t cry my beautiful crying eyes,
They make me cry,
And I can feel your pain.
Coming down like raindrops from the clouds,
Your tears make the world,
Seem rainy and wet.
Please don’t cry my beautiful crying eyes,
You’re as beautiful as they get.
The struggles you can get by,
The pain you can live through,
But those tears you keep crying,
Aren’t meant for you.
Please smile beautiful crying eyes,
Please wipe the tears that have fallen.
Please stop crying,
My beautiful,
Crying Eyes.
