FINDING STRENGTH

Last night I cried again
 tears of sadness
 tears of suffering
 centuries of suffering
 and unimaginable pain.

Abuse is happening RIGHT NOW
 to me, to you
 to the children.

The abuse is silent
 and without words
 our swords
 the evilness continues.

Our only hope is that love wins
 that our lives are put right again
 that children escape the invasion
 and truth,
 finally be set free.

Until then,
 we must continue to shine light
 we must educate everyone who will listen
 and also the ones who don’t,
 for It’s not their fault
 they don’t see clearly.

Surround yourself with love.
 these feeling comes from all shapes and sizes.
 smile and laugh often
 remember how powerful you are
 there is nothing to fear
 and that you are not alone.
