UNDERSTANDING
I understand suicidal people
A little toothache
A little unrequited love
A lot of television
A bad day
The cold
Without a fireplace
The children we deem happy
just because
Of all that they ignore
The price of property
The friends we don´t
See anymore
The fathers who can´t talk to us
And never will
The people unemployed
and underpaid
The musicians who starved to death
The people who don´t know
when to shut up
The people that we hurt
And all the things
we learnt too late
Sometimes I understand
all the suicide
And global war
and global warming
can be the least
of my concerns
