Cry Not For Me
My heart is in pain for what
I have seen and heard,
Dogs eat dogs and ants eat ants;
The moon turns dark;
The sun spits fire;the sky coughs blood,
Leaves are dry,seas are dry and the soil fumes;
What I see has made me blind,
What I hear has made me deaf;
I am a blind man in your midst,
Am I part of your world?,
I love death more than these,
soon at dawn I will be gone,
for I am not part of it;
Your ways are not my ways;
I`m done;
Cry not for me,for I go to rest.
