Tears released into the world
Exposed to the air
Taking first breath of freedom
Rolling down cheeks

Falling to their deaths
Lifes short-lived
Still serve the propose
They were created for

Knelt in the dirt
My blood covered hands
Splashed also with tears
Produced by a sadness

A body lay close
Motionless
A life gone and past
The after remains still shown

The soul inside
Taken away
Flowed to heavens gate
To be returned another day

"Falling to their deaths

~ Yes, as painful as it can be for those of us left behind, I do believe that each life serves a purpose--even those that are short-lived.

A touching piece of writing.
