Tears of the sun fall
dropping scalding suffering in its wake
like ****** from airplanes
its scorches land and living beings.

Crying aloud screams echo
falling like shattered trees on ears dead
slain by men, children
killing--children
I cant...

These sounds I hear
I'm going blind from screams
that fill empty space and hearts
a woeful symphony
a dreadful degree of cacophonies
conducted by inhumanity.

This is what they do
a statement repeated time again
this is what we do
turning a blind eye
is killing too.
inspired by the movie tears of the sun

Once there was a girl
and boy
together.
One sat here
the other
there
only eyes touching
through silent air.

I met someone today
and thought to myself
---I like you----
I let the thought marinate
swimming lull-fully in my head
before it was flushed out
by life's constant going ons.

As I lay broken
battered
open
pouring out my woes
from enclosed
places left to air,
I wonder silently
dejected
from where did I happen
to meet you
falling blindly
into
your open arms
and wide eyes.

its when we talked
long nights
when touching
lips, we brushed
too eagerly
as tenderlings
we made our way
past any boundaries
erected against us

I want now to apologize.
this does not come easily
but know
from my heart to yours, I am bleeding out
love, nourish your own
and forgive me
for I did not know
the truth.

I thought--perhaps--
that
you and I could...
Your laughing...stop!
I'm serious.
Your eyes eat hungrily
the words from my mouth.

No--please--don't follow me

I want this to be a surprise
when I come out again
I'll be smiling,
and you

you wont be laughing.
