TORN . Shadows by your bed at night Darker than the night itself it stands out like black on white The dripping of the faucet whispers cruel intentions Evil it seems has escaped your dreams Your room The very darkness it once needed to survive Out it has gone into the world to wreak havoc on those you love I saw a woman today on the news No more sense of dignity she cries for all to see For her son killed at war She has joined the common ground of the enemy Loss Confusion Their tears mix together forever morning the loss of a child Their tears Both are salty to the taste No difference Except in belief A cloud in the distant sky takes the shape of a giant mushroom God it seems likes to taunt us with the inevitable future we have set for ourselves When one day we shall all lay still throughout the world Our souls open to the sky So God can see them torn |
