Untold Survival

I feel the pain, I see the shame I hear the voices, Calling those names Names of those who suffered so, Death loomed close, they did not know Shockingly experiencing the terror of death Life ended swiftly, Are anymore left? Endless toil, hope mounting high, Passionate will to save another life Alas my friend, there is no sound Zero silence surounds the ground Agonizing hearts shred to tears, How could this be, after all these years Years of freedom calm and peace of mind, snatched by the heinous hands of crime Despite the loss we will stand strong Expectations of battles to be won America, America, the land of the brave We will not bow or become your slaves!
