Wept

As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace – but now it is hidden from your eyes.”                                                                                      Luke 19:41-42

I do not weep for the truth,

I weep because of the truth;

I weep for the futility,

I weep for the loss,

I weep for the waste,

I weep for the hopelessness.

I weep for the children,

I weep for the tragedy,

I weep for the sorrow,

I weep for the suffering,

I weep for the inevitability.

What now
