What makes me sad? Why do I cry?
Only ones without hearts have to ask why
Having compassion, a heart so caring
Filled with emotion, my tears start flowing
No matter the tragedy to ANY living creature
In real-time, TV, newspaper or movie feature
My heart overwhelmed at the suffering I see
Emotion so strong, sometimes I want to flee
For I want to have powers that make it o.k.
With a twitch of my nose, but to my dismay
Pain and suffering are a part of this life
So the feelings continue to cut like a knife
I pray that God would alleviate their pain
If taken from this life, in heaven they’ll reign
