A small kindness can’t sustain A screaming, starving child. One step at a time Won’t bridge the distance Between salvation and despair. I click that button. I like that you are running to beat cancer, But you won’t. The world boils and burns. I won’t share anymore, Because I don’t care anymore.

No solace in platitudes
A small kindness can’t sustain A screaming, starving child. One step at a time Won’t bridge the distance Between salvation and despair. I click that button. I like that you are running to beat cancer, But you won’t. The world boils and burns. I won’t share anymore, Because I don’t care anymore.
