In our heart already there's an evil thing.
Generating negative thoughts, all kinds.
Causing us to do bad things some of the time.
We wonder why some people can be...

As thousands gathered to remember
And some to forget, friends and family lost,
No longer there to support,
Every heartbeat, a tear through time,
Every tear drop, a rip across the universe,
And...

The silent stealthy cancer

no need for explanation


Internally 


From within
they are for once truly feeling 
the strange familiarity...
