I remember you...
I am haunted by this image of you sweet sixteen and a life to come And I wonder Why they chose you Or why you Chose Them I am haunted By your smiling face Knowing How You Died And knowing They Are Free I read the words Unable to comprehend Yet unable to look away I weep For the little girl You must have Been And for the piece Of humanity Slaughtered Leaving us all barren How many of you are there? How many? Beaten Bruised Raped Burned Broken How many? Yes I am haunted By the life you didn’t get to live And the one I am pissing away Wasting time being afraid Or stubborn Or some combination Useful for making Excuses It is a luxury For those with something to lose For those comfortably Asleep But is as taunting As schoolyard chanting For those Aware of the dream I’ll bet you were smart In school I wonder who you Wanted to be Who you would Have Been |

Thank you for the warning, Art. This-----stuff like this is when I could endanger my soul karmically and I would not consider it a sacrifice in any way, shape, or form. Yeah, I could become an equal if not worse animal for something like this.......................... I remember having a discussion about this in some psychology or sociology class. It haunted me for a long time but then you push it down and life just carries on. I read about this a couple of days ago again ... it has been 20 years yet I still remember how I felt back then ... the way I still feel... ...haunted .... and wondering how many more like her are out there ... and what I could do about it. |
