Death Of Compassion Someone is crying now The tears are falling Cascading down In crystal rivers of pain Someone is crying now Because of you She held her hand out Didn’t ask for much Just a friendly nod Wasn’t asking for help She held her hand out To you Her face shows the tears Their tracks edged sharp Like knife wounds Cut with such pain Her face shows the tears Because of you What did she do wrong? Does she deserve this? Such anguish here In her heart in her eyes What did she do wrong? To you They say words don’t kill They can’t really harm They have no power No way of cutting a soul They say words can’t kill They do Her life is different. Yes Did she ever harm you? Were her ways so bad? Why what did she do? Her life is different. Yes From you Someone is crying now The tears are falling Cascading down In crystal rivers of pain Someone is crying now Because of you Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

![]() (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Marsha, this is so so sad, my heart goes out to all these people who afflict such lack of sympathy to one another in tears; this is so sad but beautiful! (sad sigh) I pray that they all can learn from one another and be able to understand compassion and then share tears and love to help each other in need of comfort. (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is so sad but beautiful! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Mushy, thank you for sharing! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
