Why is the Sky crying?
pounding his chest and wailing
With lightning and thunder,
why is he falling on his knees and under?
his mighty heart becoming fragile
and his strong feet turning feeble
his face shadowed by dark cloud
and his body that the blood enshroud
perhaps he could not hold his wrath
could not see a torn veil of his earth
disgust and guilt to see his child defenseless
and heavy burden to carry helpless
perhaps he could not believe his child's joyful heart
little hands, hopes and dreams torn apart
innocent pranks and smiles, always and ever
stolen away and that he will see them never
it is all those agonies and pains
perhaps it is all of those and prayers
that he is crying and wailing
that he is falling and kneeling
and that no father should go through
and no father should bear through
