~ compassion cannot erase ~

Look at the sky,
Sometimes your heaven seems so far away.
Look deep down,
Where depravation turns into decay,
I've stood here in the rain,
Felt it run down my face.
I shut my eyes,
And continued to tell myself I must go on.
Change is turning into fear,
Fear is melting into hate.
Something compassion cannot erase.
