Jonathan Duhart Poet Rhyme

I Have No Tears To Give To You

I have no tears to give to you
In a world void of remorse
I have no tears to give to you
Because compassion’s a dead horse

I have no tears to give to you
For the bruises her boyfriend gave her
I have no tears to give to you
For the scared child craving a savior

I have no tears to give to you
For the father enclosed in a cell
I have no tears to give to you
For the mother raising her son in hell

I have no tears to give to you
When the boy befriends a gun
I have no tears to give to you
When a mother’s stripped of her son

I have no tears to give to you
Because they have drenched both of my sleeves
They were all I had to offer you
I guess I’m not as strong as I believed.
