It pains me to know what is happening, When I shouldn't know. It's a pain that burdens me, A pain I cannot show. If I please my tears, For If they fall, I will be surrounded by my fears, And I will receive my final call. I silently watch the feed, It fills the screen hourly. My anger needs to be freed, But I sit alone cowardly. I ask myself why, I look at this with intent, I set myself up to cry, but with not a single tear wept.

My anger needs to be freed, But I sit alone cowardly. I ask myself why, I look at this with intent, I set myself up to cry, but with not a single tear wept.
