Just because her eyes don't tear doesn't mean her heart doesn't cry. And just because she comes off strong, doesn't mean there's nothing wrong

“I am your angel in the snow”
she whispered softly in my ear
and I won’t forget how
with her bony fingers
she drew a heart against my chest
as shut her eyes forever and
I couldn’t hide my tears
though she told me to be strong
I sang for her like she sang for me and
after all these years
(when she was just my friend)
I was everything to her
I never knew that
someone loved me and
I always wondered if
the moon does cry.
Tonight, I saw that
in all the pain of
her words,
the stars hung on
and moon shed a tear as
My best friend said good-bye.
