Austerity Of Our Lives Here In This World


Life has been so hard this far,
My eyes do not understand what’s going on in this world,
So far in my life,
A couple million tears
Have escaped my eyes
And flooded down my cheeks,
Planting themselves in the earth
Or my pendleton blanket.
I’d rather weep a thousand tears
To help my next of kin understand real ways, real ideas.
I have to be the one to teach them realness,
I cannot hide behind the worlds’ falsities.
I refuse to tell them lies about life,
I’ll tell it gentle as I can,
But they learn the harshness later on as we all do.
Sadness, life has been so hard this far,
I want someone to sit beside me,
And relate to what I’ve been thinking.
