Weep Not

Folder: 
Soul Poetry

Weep not for withered flowers,

they had their chance in the glow-

but weep for departed children,

who will never, ever grow.



Weep not for yesterday,

it remains in the past-

but weep for a future,

that long, may not last.



Weep not for the wealthy,

who have all and more-

but weep for the destitute,

the homeless, the poor.



Weep not for lovers,

whose heart each does own-

but weep for those people,

who remain all alone.



Weep not for the believers,

in Heaven they shall stroll-

but weep for the faithless

and pray for their soul.



Weep not for the strong,

for they have what they seek-

but weep for the searchers,

the timid and the weak.



Weep not for me,

I've accepted my fate-

but weep for yourself,

before its too late.
