The tale of unseen people, whose voice I never heard Their hopes and dreams and lives were all discarded as absurd They never breathed the lovely air with which I fill my chest They fell victim to the murder, which I do detest Defenseless little creatures, within their mother's womb The ones who should have loved them, became their grave and tomb Yet I cannot hate them, the mothers of the lost Who pay their dues a lifetime, who's shouldering the cost I try to keep my voice down, while I loudly speak my mind Not lower expectations, but attempting to be kind The tale unwinds in secret, and suddenly stopped short For with the tiny instruments, the tale it will contort And so I weep in silence for the little people's lot That weren't deemed important, oh those children, finely wrought http://www.xqpoetry.com <-- poetry, philosophy, journal and discussion |
