How Many?

How Many?

A Poem by SarahCortland
"

Looking for who you truly are.

"
 

How many people does it take to see a broken heart?

How many trials does it take to get a start?

How many tears must be shed until someone hears?

How many times must you run until you outrun your fears?

One to see but never tell

of the tears unworthy that fell.

One to cause one affect

but no one to help is what we expect.

How many times will you be blind before you see?

How many times will you be locked away until your free?

How many times will you fail to learn?

How many wrongs until you take the right turn?

One to see but never tell

of the tears unworthy that fell.

One to cause one affect

but no one to help is what we expect.

How many times until you no longer hide?

How many blocks until you show whats inside?

How many times will you lie about whats true?

How many times until finally it's you?
