In Our Silent Holocaust

In our silent holocaust 
we sit n toil 
under the lost 
we ponder the spoil
ponder the toll 
of our inner minds eye 
within our silent holocaust 
sitting in our quiet graves 
bury each an idea of hope 
each a concept of what would be 
what we would see 
in ourselves 
a tear for what could be 
a sigh for the wraith
as our inner eye blurs 
faith
spirals our deepest pain 
the clouds are dark with burden
as we sit in our silent holocaust 
we ponder the lying
a line of stones 
we watch his gaze 
grow dark 
with burdens of a nation 
covering our silent holocaust 
we ponder the vast ruin landscape 
of ideology and mortality 
and cast asunder to heaven 
rage 
as we sit, prey why 
questions the survival of our insanity 
as we dwell deep 
in our silent holocaust 
unknown by all 
unseen seen by none
only loved by one 
we are all alone 
in our silent holocaust
