How many tears does it take?
To honor the fallen ones
Cannot the dead bury themselves?
Shouldn't we just remember them in the best of lights?
Tired of being a witness to end
Want to begin with a singular thought ... Freedom
Free to ignore revenge
Free to have a singing heart
Free to cry out loud with no apologies
Free to live before death comes
Free to dance in with the sun
Angst belongs to yesterday
Joy is in the pleasure of now
Wanting no revenge
Yearning not for justice
Only wanting peace
It always needs a start
Let the new begin ...
With the laughter in ME

I have only my genius to declare!

Lovely writing.
