the rain falls from the sky
as the dark clouds roll by.
nobody looked up
as the cold air sweeps by
in silence they heard a sound.
no tear have dropped
yet everyone was crying.
the sky shed the tears
of the hearts that have cried.
in silence,
everybody heard the sound.
in stillness,
a life was taken.
if only, if only...
they had known what have been done.
