Mingled Tears




Tears of joy and tears of sorrow,
Tears of regret and fears for tomorrow,
Every tear that flows is captured above,
And shouts silently as a testament to love.
Hardened hearts feel no pain, nor do they shed a tear,
Their hearts have closed the door to shun the risk of pain.
The hearts of those who dare to love, also dare to cry,
For love and tears flow mingled down and intertwined.
So too, The Savior's love and sorrow flowed mingled down,
For it was His thorns that composed so rich a crown.

In memory of dad whose tears I dried and mingled with mine during his final days of illness.
