Hurting People

Hurting people
on the street
Faceless folks
I'll never meet
They've got fears
and hates and pains;
underneath
we're all the same.

Hurting people
on the street
Tired, weary
on their feet
Through my tears
I see their grief
Fragile, like
a fallen leaf

This is where
true friendship starts
We see we're not
so far apart
Beneath the color
of your face
There's pain that
nothing can erase

Hurting people
side by side
Busy with
their own sad lives
Probably
we'll never meet
But I see you
on the street.
