Walking in between scared hallways
the screams can be heard for miles
footsteps of the forgotten engraved on
marble floors
Walking in between cluttered classrooms
A tornado of fear
A grave for tears and prayers
Souls trapped within four walls
Punishment for living
Will we have time to visit all the
unmarked graves?
Will we have time to decorate them
with rosaries & prayers?
Will we have time to continue feeding
innocent & vulnerable lambs
to bloodthirsty wolves?
Let's have a moment of silence
Let's take time to lament & reflect
Let the tears fall they will be dried up
by tomorrow
Let's have a period of inaction
only to remember but never vindicate
their candlelight has gone out
will you help me light it?
