Tears You Dont Have Time For Poem by Eric Cockrell

Tears You Dont Have Time For

Rating: 5.0


the bruised face
with chaptered eyes,
you change the baby....

coffee, no breakfast.
pick up the bottles,
empty the ashtrays....

brush your hair,
try to hide
the telling color....

and off to work.
9.50 an hour,
amid the whispers....

to you, love is a battlefield,
a baby's cry, ... and tears
you dont have time for.

An immense song. Amid the hubbub of life, this is music. Great stuff Eric.
