Its Too Late

Its Too Late
I saw this man walk in
His eyes are black
They are bruised
And there goes my stomach
My heart aches for him
These eyes form tears
I could barely look at him
It was just so heart wrenching
I wonder what happened
Who did this to him
I wanted to find out
I saw this lady sitting with her mom
Her mother was talking to her
And she was blank
She didn’t say a word
She was already gone
Her poor mom just sat there
With her daughters hands in hers
I sat and watched for a little while
My heart dies to help
But it knows it just can’t
Then I feel helpless
I can’t give them hope
I don’t know what to say
Its just too late..

Always remember this, Kylie. As long as one is alive, and kicking there is hope. It's only too late when we die. It isn't always easy or obvious where or what it is that hope lies in. But it is there all the same. No matter what. Sometimes, we're the ones that are too late finding it...
Another Excellent piece of your art, that brings to light a most important message. Thank you for sharing this. It very well may be that ray of light that provides hope for someone.

My heart dies to help
But it knows it just can't
Then I feel helpless
I can't give them hope
I don't know what to say
Its just too late..
