.::hurt::.

 

Tears fall from the sky

carrying the Cries of broken people

my travels bring me to a river

that the tears begin to fill

 

i stand by this river of Hurt

hearing it’s Cries

watching as the banks disappear

Motionless, as the water rises

 

unable to stop the water

i stare at my reflection

seeing my Pain float by

the water rises to my feet

 

Broken dreams

Broken promises

i watch humanity Weep

the water rises to my knees

 

powerless to stop the waves

i see Oppressed men and women

toiling under Wicked Ambition

the water rises to my waste

 

children Starving for Love

addicts Searching for freedom

the Tears have started falling harder

the water rises to my neck

 

i draw my gaze toward the sky

trying to find air

trying to find Justice

the water rises over my head

 

i hold my breath

for surely Justice Will come

surely there is Mercy

but i only have so much Breathe left
