A Crowd In the Face

I have seen too much,
I know there
Is more
To
Come.

Nothing stops for you,
You just figure out
How to break up the day.

People talk to themselves
As I hold the body of a crying woman
Who has a child looking back at me in heartbreak.

You take what each day gives,
Even those days that bring violence and death.
I know this more than love.

Just hold on one more minute
One more hour....... Maybe
A
Stranger will come up to you
And say i love you.

Its anything can happen day
And in a shroud of cheap mystery you
Find your place.
