Why shyly cry, you can openly smile

What brings a tear of joy to your eye?

A tear will show the feeling I hold back,

Small signal of something I can’t disguise

Or hide. Those feelings that can only crack

The surface of reserve will not surprise

With joy another that your love would hold

In open arms. A smile’s more true and bold.

Let us then go that extra yard or mile;

Why shyly cry, you can openly smile
