Again We Breathe


Quieten now my precious child!
There'll be no more cries to alarm
Just rest a while your weary soul
Tonight you sleep devoid of harm

We'll think only of the angels touch
And softly wonder how they fly
Cradled quietly in those loving arms
There's no more tears from clouded eye

Each life so fragile to be lost
Each one a part of the whole
But as you pass from this place on
Hear the cry of our shattered souls

Minds are numbed with pain and fear
Yet with each new dawn, again we breathe
Nothing left but these useless tears
All I can do is pray and grieve

I remember...

I like the softness, the hand holding comfort across the seas. We really are all on one planet, and have such a small space to share in this universe, you would think we would find a way to hold hands, not weapons.
Thanks, Eagle.

We all remember
this year,

swift in movement
slow in tread
we remember
the fear, the dread

We remember
why our resolve...
we remember
and will not dissolve...

Yet with each new dawn, again we "breathe"

I could not upon reading this. A poem of heart, of sadness and of hope. Incredible!

Midnitesun ~ I’m glad you felt the comfort, it is what I was trying to convey. And yes I agree with you, perhaps one day it shall come to pass.

Sunshine ~ Well said!

WhiteRose ~ I thank you, I walk on with hope in my heart.

Enchantress ~ God bless us all!

Noah ~ We will always remember.

i think its safe to say that our childrens children will be reading about what happened a year and one day ago. dont worry, it will always be remembered.. the question is, do SOME people WANT to remember it?
