You may have seen murder

You may have seen crime

But I've seen the darkness that hide's inside

You've seen the poor

You've seen the weak

I've seen the broken that cry from defeat

You see the hungery

I see the starving

You see the sick

I see the dying

You see the bruise

I saw the punch

You see the stain

I saw the blood

You read it in the paper

I was at the grave

You feel a crack in the glass

I feel it brake

You'll never understand how I felt that day.

I hope you never do because that feeling never goes away.

My only sister died when I was 11. I felt like my world had fallen apart. I know people already know what pain feels like, but I dont want them to have to feel what I felt
