She Cried
Hayley Potter
When the lights go down
and the music stops
and the world seems all but gone.
She opens her eyes
and searches her soul
for the more than familiar song.
The song that is sung
by the Man and his men
at times of incredible need.
The song that is sung
by the Man and his men
at times of incredible greed.
The fear of ourselves
and the fear of loss
is the power he holds above.
She opens her eyes
and her soul starts to die
as she draws back her lasting love.
The world is closed
and the curtains are drawn
and all the compassion has died.
She watches him speak
and listens to hate
and understood why it is that she cried.
