tears
I thought a bit today
That I've shed more tears
For those I don't know
These past two years
I cry for those who've battled
For those who lost their fight
For the workers who aided them
As they pass on day and night
I've cried at situations
When I'm safe behind my door
For those who are unable
To see the arrows on the floor
I cry because the future
Isn't coming soon enough
Solutions are just smoke rings
Disappearing with a puff
My eyes are all blurry
Red and always burning
I cry because from what I see
So many just aren't learning
My tear ducts keep releasing
Prayers for those now dead
Hope for those still living
Believing lies that they've been fed
Anger, I don't feel it
I haven't for two years
I only feel frightened
And I can only share my tears
