My heart speaks to you



What a dreadful sad day
Oh mothers, fathers, children
Your hearts are torn with sadness
Your weakened bodies are afraid
Your  sobbing tears are  crying out loud
Piercing  the distant hearts
Who received them with sobbing cries
Hoping with fear that every  beloved one will be find alive
Beneath these thousands of pillars

Searchers   found   living ones
Sadly they found thousands of dead and wounded ones Nothing is more recognizable nothing but  debris
Unforgettable are your  torments
In the hearts of those who know how to love
They don't care about race, creed or color
May the Lord send you by your side
Among those kind souls
To feel  your flames to feel your pain
May your palpable souls with  time ease your wounds Oh how I wish i can put flowers on their graves
