God has no more tears left to shed Another child wound up dead He has long gone dry eyed But His heart each time dies Freewill, the decision he now regrets Into another darkness as the sun sets God has cried countless tears For each and everyone’s fears Another smile erased From a child’s face No answers, just questions remain We are all guilty, equally to blame God cannot cry anymore We can only with prayer, implore Divine intercession Is out of the question So we live on, feeling unnecessary fears And we go on crying, for God has no more tears |

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me |

"No answers, just questions remain We are all guilty, equally to blame" For the children without smiles, we are truely to blame. Sad subject but, good write. |

You have a very fine heart, and mind, to put to us the thought that maybe one day God might wipe his hands of us. A chilling reminder to "get right".... well done! |

Well said. These can be sad times we live in when we see the way the children suffer, sometimes at the hands of their parents and other trusted adults, and sometimes by their own. |
