Streams of Tears
April 25, 2003
Copyright 2003 Doug Pretorius

I have grown so weary,
of the wrestling that we've done,
back and forth we bicker,
only to declare it's all good fun.
We don't seem to know,
the difference between love and pain,
neither can we justify,
the meaning of the slain.
A thrist for blood unquenched,
by all the wars we've lived,
endless without direction,
in exhaustion we must give in.
I have grown too tired,
to search for truth and peace,
all the streams of tears,
fall upon our recent deceased.

I trully loved this

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.
