the power of tears, have no fear!

the power of tears,
have no fear!

the power of tears
don’t be afraid

time will heal our minor ailments
the sun light will brighten our tired faces
and hand in hand we will listen to the silence
with a heavy heart and burning eyes 
and will we still be able to cry ?
will we still recognize the sense of the days passing by?
under air conditioning skies and dreadful advertising signs 
over junctions,  highways interceptions and apartments / niches lost far away in the outskirts of this suburban town?

maybe, 
maybe yes ...

and if we will still be able to cry
 those saving tears will give back a sense
to our disordered and distracted lives 
to our indifferent and confused lives
while outside, there will still be someone 
on the street corner
or far away in the suburbs of the world
someone who will live his life
in a condition of war
and will not have
 the time to cry

no time to cry....

but do not fear, the sun light will brighten our tired faces
and hand in hand we will listen to the silence
with a heavy heart and burning eyes 
and if we will still be able to cry 
then the world will have peace,
 the world will have bread !
the world will still hope
in the new day arriving
the world will still believe in tomorrow

the power of tears
do not be afraid
ever!

“We all have our moments of weakness, just as well that we are still capable of weeping, tears are often our salvation, there are times when we would die if we did not weep –
Blindness
