The Earth Trembled
The earth trembled that day,
The clattering sounds fused
With crying sounds
Could be heard from miles away,
The fear etched on the faces of many
The screams of pain resounding
While they scramble to safety
Tramping each other in the process
It is impossible to escape
Without being traumatized
Left with visible and invisible scars
Those lucky enough to be alive
Relay tales of horror
With loved ones missing
And many still ensnared beneath buildings and debris…
