Trying times?
Have you tried crying?
Have you cried trying?
Trying not to cry.
Do you sleep weeping?
Do you sleep?
Do you sweep weeping?
Are you sleep-sweeping?
Is he a thief?
Didn’t he steal your grief?
Or did God steal He who stole your heart?
Do you still wear the wedding band
Of a dead husband?
Do you steal remember your wedding band?
And the dance steps of a dead husband?
Trying times?
Have you cried trying?
Trying to say He’s not a thief?
Didn’t God steal He who stole your grief?
Did God try you?
Crying times.
