.::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
