Drill #9 (Let me cry for you)

Let me cry for you. 

Let me wipe away the tears

And the fears

That the world has forced upon your eyes. 

The wounds they have inflicted, 

Give them to me, 

And let me feel.

 

The rain have poured upon you for so long,

While I sit on the edge of the rainbow

Enjoying the pot of gold 

That was meant to be yours. 

How unfair it must be, 

To those whose lives and blood were shed

While the world stood still. 

Let me hear your cries, 

And let me scream with you; 

Even though my voice comes out as a whisper

For being sealed for far too long.

I grieve for your little ones, 

Those angels deserved better than to have their wings cut

And fallen from grace.

Let me weep for you, 

Let me be the one to shed some tears this time

For I fear the loss of humanity.

While you have lost your lives by force-

It was the world that's lost its soul.

I wouldn't say the world as lost their soul, as a few exalted beings still exist. The truth is violence never solves anything, and if your poem here is your feelings it's a work of beauty and I share your pain too. Life is cruel, but there is always hope.

You did well here, and I think this poem is absolutely altruistic. But maybe you are wiser than me. Have I lost my soul? Because I feel deep remorse and guilt if I truly do wrong. But I speak in paradox and riddle.

Hey, you should totally write more because I definitely would read it. You are a great writer. Heres to you. Great work :)

Well thank you for your thoughts and for reading. But I do think that in one way or another, the world has lost its soul if not parts of it.

Thank you for your kind words. :)
