Just Cry

Just Cry

A Poem by Skib
"

Humility is Underrated...

"
Cry for the war torn 
Just don't cry for me 
Weep for the impoverished 
Just don't sob for me

Let your eyes roll in the salty solution 
let them flood from the stresses of life
just don't waste a single drop on me

Just cry...
just cry for anyone that isn't you or I  
as humility favours humanity 
in ways unnoticed to the dry eyed

Just cry
lament for the world 
in a time where it needs an ally...
or two

Just Cry.
