Endless Tears

Endless tears,

Through the years,

Rain down

Falling, without sound.

Tracing the names

Etched in the memorial wall,

Slowly, endlessly,

Sad tears fall.

Some of the names,

Appear to fade away,

Washed by the falling tears

Of today and yesterday.

My sad tears

Fall here too,

A part of the endless rain

Cried by the widows of the blue.
