To Suffer

Men fall Women die Children weep Over what used to be their parents Lying in streets Charred bodies Killed without mercy Killed without reason No salvation Within this nation No limits To destruction No companionship is gained The people of this world They are lost They are misguided They attack All of our rights All of our freedoms We have no safety in our world We have no safety in our life Disembodied souls embark on a different journey They have left us They watch us They listen to our sorrows They are not gone Not forever Nothing is forever Not even death Death is new life In a different form It is freedom It is salvation It gives new life For eternity No one shall die
