Yesterday

Yesterday or was it the day before
yesterday? I held my breath hoping
against hope that what was about
to happen, wouldn't happen but it
did happen.

Now I must breathe, in - out, as tears
stream from my eyes for a nation which
has suffered so much for being in the
middle must suffer again.
