Unheard Voices:

Yesterday my tears were dry
Today I cry
The future is uncertain

Mankind so incomplete
Hearts torn
Souls are broken

Heaven hides
Angels weep
The world’s sleeping

Through the dark
Through the storm
Times are changing

Is anyone listening

Life is a strain
Everything is in vain

Does anyone feel my pain

Children dying
Mothers crying
An entire generation.

yes, it's very sad. I think many of us can "hear" it. LUv, Andrea
