A heavy feeling in the air <br />See I couldn't prepare <br />What was I meant to witness there? <br />Shrouded in dark <br />Disinclined <br />Heads down as they marched <br />Working for a stalemate can taste particularly tart <br />Keep the faith <br />See fatalities galore <br />Death stepped in a home and then politely locked the door <br />Dropping bodies on the floor <br />Emaciation is a typical thing <br />Here the circumstances couldn't be explained <br />I see a walking skeleton <br />Placing grains and praying for change <br />Only to pass away the following day <br />Leaving families behind <br />The little children couldn't handle her dying <br />Nobody's there to console the lonely cries <br />A shadowy hue <br />They'd never ask because they already knew <br />If I could I would just give them all my food <br />I'm in a gloomy mood <br />So much selfishness <br />Help out the poor! <br />The things we take for granted <br />Some can use for sure<br /><br />Dexsta Ray<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tears-of-the-dying/
