Can you?

its bout the world

Can you hear it?
The shattering of a heart
Of a will
Can you hear it?
A child crying all alone
The tinkling of shards of glass on the floor
The woman yelling for help
Can you hear it?
I can.
The breaking of a heart
The unleashed tears
I can hear the hurt of the world.
None are spared from it
Can you hear it?
Can you see it?
Can you see the look of a man about to die at the hands of his lover?
The blood on the hands of a killer
I can.
I can hear the calls for help.
I can see the line that divides man from monster.
Can you smell the fear?
Or the pain
I can.
Can you feel it?
The pain
The hurt
Can you feel the rush of life as it drifts away.
Can you?
I can.
Can you taste it?
The sorrow
The bitter taste of defeat
The sour taste of envy
Can you?
I can.
I have.
Have you?
