Sound of silence
Listen. Can you hear.
Strangely eerie; isn’t it.
The sound of silence.
Too late
Come close; hear my words.
We should have acted sooner.
Now, it’s just too late.
Stop!
Stop the misery.
Stop the pain. The suffering.
Surrender or die.
Tell what you did
Be sure you do it.
Be sure to tell what you did.
Leave no stone unturned.
Wish for something better
In the dark recess.
Be careful what you wish for.
It just might happen.
Women stand alone
Women stand alone.
Men beaten by the horror.
Lives lost; forever.
Don’t leave me
Please; don’t leave me here.
To the ravages of time.
Please; take me with you.
The pandemic
The terror it came
Out of the blue. No warning.
Took the old; the young.
The photograph
Just a photograph.
You can’t hurt me now. Can you?
You shattered my heart.
