How Good Men Cry
a tear is in her eye
as she walk the streets
no other chose
but to bag
she says
"please sir can i have some bread"
he keep walking
she falls to her knees
"my children are starving"
"they haven't eaten this week"
he keeps walking
she starts crying
"my children are dieing"
the mass stop for a moment
he turns
as they move on
with tears in his eyes
he says
"i have none to give"
