W3 Prompt #5: Wea’ve Written Weekly – My Heavy Heart

My heavy heart will heal in time
Must search inside to avoid the world’s grime
Enough of the politician’s worthless chime
They’re given way too much airtime
We know who’s hands are dirty with grime
They too are at fault for the horrendous crime
Of taking lives still in their prime
Regaining joy will take much time
