Secrets unfold
I turn my head
to see the truth
as it was written.

Stories untold
World forgotten,
remember life when
it was undiminoshed.

Lies run cold
Humanity suffers
injustice as repen-
tance for its sins.

Sanity grows old
Can you not see
your mind leaving you
to fend for yourself

Men are bold
They stand to fight
at arms as brothers
who rush to their deaths.

Life I hold
So seemlessly flut-
tering away are the
lives falling before me

In the end I realize that this world is not a place for men.
Its didnt accept us by choice, only chance.
it cries out for us all to end the violence,
But its voice goes inheard in the daunting silence.

Yes, indeed, there are times, such as you have  passionately written of, when silence can be ever so daunting. May the voices of peace be heard and with not only ears, but with souls and hearts as well.

Love, Harmony, & World Peace,

EA
