Do Not Cry
Suzanne Mondoux · 2 April 2020
Song/Poem of the Year
A pale face in the mirror smiling back at me I comb my finger through my hair to touch me and know I’m truly there A bird lands on my widow seal singing the morning song Do not cry at sunrise and sing with me instead
Do not cry, you waste your tears, save them for when they are really needed Sing with me as the sun rises, let the sun warm your face Put on your shoes and come walk with me The trees are waiting for you, they’ve missed you
Look to at me and look to me to set you free It’s like this you spread your wings and soar into the sky Do not cry with your feet stuck to the ground Raise yourself with your head up high and your wings spread wide
Do not cry for you too much, you drown our heart, it cannot breath See the sunshine in your heart and feel the warmth on your face Follow me to the trees, walk in the forest and touch all life Do not cry for us we live no matter what, our soul soars
Do not cry, do not cry, do no cry It’s but a moment in time this pain and sorrow It’s but a moment soon forgotten Something new will come tomorrow with a new sunrise
Do no cry for me or you
