Feelings

I’m sad when child is hungry and cold
I’m sad when the drugs are sold
I’m sad when animal is hurt and abuse
I’m sad when woman is beating and use
I’m sad when soldiers are dying in the war
Why be sad? when there is so much 
to be happy for

I cried when he left and I was alone
I cried when I picked myself up and my sorrow was gone
I cried when I met him my heart and my soul
I cried for smallest things and more
Why cry? when there is so much
to be happy for

I laugh facing life each and every day
I laugh when I don’t know even what to say
I laugh from the danger staring at me
I laugh to see eagles flying above completely free
I love to laugh a lot more
Because 
there is so much to laugh for
