Blood and Tears by Joseph Skowrinek

Blood and Tears

Red fills the sky as the sun sets

Clouds glow as the moon rises

Red fills my veins pumped through a heart giving love and life

Hand on my chest grasping hope of future

Truth desires explanation as well as welcomes change

Stress fills the room inch by inch consuming every conscious person in a ball of fire

Erosion is apparent to the faces themselves

More choices poisoned next to nothing is able to cure

My humanity

My names on a bullet

My fingers on a trigger

Stress in replaced by blood and tears

Blood and Tears
