Rip

Terrified moments are frozen in time another Black Friday inks history as fear gripped innocence wrenching it ripped it from their astonished eyes Then lights turned off on a Tower normally filled with life and love, Mothers wailed as Fathers filled with anger petrifying their hearts Now knowing a magnitude of loss, grief, The Country of Love weeps for what was, steadfast, noble yet still abrim with hope candles and flowers stop missiles of hate So vast is this outpouring of love the whole planet shines in tribute, with ribbons of blue white and red streaming unto the heavens above we have cried with you, and for you we've said prayers of protection, I Daydream of peaceful saner days when humanity can be in solidarity. Showing humanity at its very worst and at its utmost horrifying, this act of barbaric monsters has stoked the fires of Justice Erase them from the pages of our age it should be as if they never were, like the Nazi's they should be hunted the Federation of fellow man shall rise. Love will always conquer hate filled minds tomorrow faces a thousand ways to evil, let compassion and common decency win the day, lets again know a gentler time In the long grass, fear is only a concept and humankind no longer knows only greed, In these days to Love your neighbour will just be, I'm just a dreamer maybe The City of Light is illuminating the world with Grace and Fortitude their shield, and by their side the sword of the justice is rising ready to strike so they can RIP.
