Our Games of Tears

I never felt like anyone Should take their life away Now I’ve started to run Wondering if I’m late These games of tears Sipping poisoned lakes Knowing that we fear All the lies we ate Reminiscing on Society's abuse and hate Singing songs of love While we fill our plates With blissful ignorance We know it’s free to take When society is In a brainwashed state And we are not what we want But we are what we all see When others’ tragedies come around Our knees will go weak And then there will be Dreadful lies Mixed with ocean tides Do you see water or blood at your feet?

Great quatrains of Free Verse. I like your first stanza very much and was wondering how you would feel about moving it to the bottom, it would make for a very strong last stanza. Welcome to PoetrySoup :)
