Tears: Lamentations: Prayers and Poetry

                Tears

                Tears flow now for others

                daughters of her city
                left unprotected, barren
                of future hope
                prey stalking streets
                luring them by false
                promises to seduce
                for material gain
                innocent wander into
                traps, bewildered. Love
                turns hard, becomes survival. 

Psalm 37:26: "They are ever giving liberally and lending, and their children become a blessing."
