My Tears

Every tear that falls
Off my once happy face
Is for the
Pain and anguish, i
Feel everyday, just
Unresolved sorrow and fear
That Steals the joy i might
Have for tomorrow
I'm like a child trapped
In a dark room
With every fear near
The closest door
I'm like a wild lion
Locked in a cage
Waiting to be released
What is the cause?
Maybe an innocent child
Having there innocents taken
Away  or The sound of an
AK while screaming are
You ok or Falling to
The ground and crawling
For life itself
I don't know it's hard
To figure out but its life,
My life, my fears, and
My Tears
