But Still You Did Not See
~ Shirin G.
The worst had happened
I was in pain
But still you did not see
I was hurting, lost in my own
Misery
But still you did not see
Blinded by your
Memories
Hatred at its worst
But still you did not see
How many lost
Lives
Lost in history
But still you did not see
How many more have to go
For you to open your eyes
But still you did not see
I was broken
A shattered glass inside
But still you did not see
Hearts were broken
So were bones
But still you did not see
A hole in your heart
Yet to be filled
But still you did not see
They said “Do Something!
It’s not right”
But still you did not see
Lives changed forever
But still you did not see
For all of those who still have hope
They are hoping You will
See
