Are There Tears?

Are there tears that welled in your eyes and your heart
That were never wiped away or dried? They've become a part
Of who you are and how you view life. They may never ever go away,
But if they do, they'll be replaced with knowledge of a lesson that will stay.

We must use the "less than" tragedies to strengthen and fortify,
Giving an understanding of how you use the "less-thans" to defy
Those hurtful experiences that we finally learn from and overcome,
Making us now a stronger person as we become the total sum.
