I Forgot To Cry

I forgot to cry today

I never thought I would,

I was halfway through the day

Before I knew I could.

I  guess it is true time does heal

other thoughts do come,

Other needs to be met

 Even laughter before the day is done.

I forgot to cry today,

and I wonder if that’s okay?

Did it mean I’d forgotten,

If the tears didn’t stay?

I believe the Lord plans it that way

He didn’t intend for the tears to last,

that we would weep for a little while

And then our tears would pass.

I forgot to cry today

But tomorrow they’ll start all over again

I’ll remember and the tears will flow

and there’ll be something unexpected

that will make me smile I know.
