Portapique and Nova Scotia

Portapiqué and all 
Nova Scotia, you will hurt
For a long, long time
In deep sorrow of
What has happened in your lives…
Never knowing why.

Your burden is huge.
Yet, when you teeter… 
We will bear you up.

Made my eyes swell up, this did. So heartbreaking. So heartbreaking. x
