Night Falls

When sunlight goes darkness falls.
A spade hitting the mud ground zero has come.
Opening the curtains seeing the  horrifying night that started.
Dried up eye that ran out of paper so what shall I do.
Ashes that disappear in thin air are alive again.
Two small children sitting in the dark.
A whipping hand that had no fear.
A ghostly return of someone changed things forever.
A hug that took five long years came back.
They were gossips around but nobody really knew what 
happened.
