There Too Poem by Alandra Nicole Moreira

Pens and paper
Are sitting on the desk
There is a lamp there too
With a pile stack so high
Of papers that are over due

Pillows and sheets
Are sitting on the bed
There is a quilt there too
Waiting to be made

Pain and worry
Are sitting on my shoulders
There is a guilt there too
And it is just a little hard
To believe I can get through

War and blood
Are on the tv
There is a soldier there too
And it is killing me

It is not what I want to hear
It is not what I want to see
Don't tell me that you don't care
I can see through you
Just as you can see through me
