I saw
I saw suffering today.
It was closed, quiet,
curled up into a small ball,
dressed in thin robes.
I saw suffering today.
His big eyes
looked at me in silence
were looking for help.
I saw suffering today.
When they reached out
begging for help
and more feelings.
I saw suffering today.
And I stood looking from the side
because I was so scared
I couldn't take a step.
It was closed, quiet,
curled up into a small ball,
dressed in thin robes.
I saw suffering today.
His big eyes
looked at me in silence
were looking for help.
I saw suffering today.
When they reached out
begging for help
and more feelings.
I saw suffering today.
And I stood looking from the side
because I was so scared
I couldn't take a step.
