I am hurting Today

I am hurting today.

I am hurting for my sorrows.

I am hurting for my joys.

My past. My present.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting for the ones without a voice.

I am hurting for the ones whose voices were silenced.

The old. The new.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting for the tragedies that have gone unseen.

I am hurting for the tragedies that will never be unseen.

The lies. The truths.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting for the fears that corrupt the mind.

I am hurting for the fears that strengthen a people.

The strong. The weak.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting today.

I am hurting for the ones condemned to walk on glass.

I am hurting for the ones condemned to walk on silk.

The rich. The poor.

I am hurting today.
