back

i remember

ties of peace

friends at ease

and now there's only war

disloyal to ourselves

keeping hearts that hide

fear of freedom to confide

serious smiles

so full of sadness

at the missing element

that once made us human

that once made us friends

we can never be in sunlight together again

driven apart by bodies

these souls on a journey

can the child's peace ever

reflect on our faces

will the path ever find us together

while running from choices
