Eyes. Face. 
Cries. Voice.
Hopes. Dreams.
Fear. Tears.
Lost. Love.
Real. Pain.
Scared. Drained.

Life. Death.

They are a…

People who trusted us.
People who looked to us.
People that need us.
People that love us.

Are we a…

People who turn our backs
People who break the tracks
People who betray their trust
People who say: 

don’t count on us?
