Never Look Away


                                                                                      Armistice day, 2012.
                               Never Look Away

Remember, remember,
11th November,
No more gunpowder,
Gas screaming rot.

Remember this day,
Never again,
And tomorrow those who fell we forgot.

Remember, remember, remember.

    David, this world is not what it is... everything standing tall eventually falls... Sad, are the memories we have to endure with such pain. We do seem to forget, but all the tension inside of us, falls far into a coma ,, it kind of wants us to forget.... Don't you think?? Some days are from remembering when it comes to wickedness... love this verse,,, LINDA
