I See America Hurting

i see a doctor hurting as one of his patients pass. i see a mother hurting as her children grow up to fast. i see the firefighters hurting as they put out the fire from 9/11. i see family's hurting as their loved ones go to heaven. i see people hurting and wondering what their here for. i see america hurting while we still remain in war. i see america hurting as their jobs are taken away, and they are left without pay. i've seen america hurting everyday. i've seen america hurting in some very hurtful ways.
