I cried for you,
I cried for me,
I cried for us,
I cried for my friendship with you failing,
I cried for the children left for dead,
I cried for their dreams that will never be realized,
I cried for their dreams that will never be know,
I cried for their mothers and sisters,
I cried for their fathers and brothers,
I cried for their grandparents, aunts and uncles.
I let a waterfall fall onto my hands,
I let it hurt me,
I let it sooth me,
I let go as well.
I cried for what privilege I have,
I cried for how lucky I am,
I cried for how loved I am,
I cried and let go of so much.
