Guilt
I feel guilt for crying
when you have more pain
you cry for your mother
and I cry because of mine
you cry for a lost home
and I cry for a broken one
your tears fall for your dead siblings
and I cry because I fight with mine
you scream at the men around you
and I can't look them in the eye
you were taken away as a child
and I never was one
together we cry for death
