Emergency Room, Early Hours Saturday Morning

I want you to know I saw you

I saw you

Try to comfort your Mum

As she begged for her gun

I saw a young man

do what he can

with the tools 

that he had.

A moment of despair

Hands in his hair

Mom

Mom

Please 

I saw you through the sweat salt and tears 

in 

my own eyes

I want you to know I saw you

I saw you

Try to comfort your Mum

as she begged for her gun.
