May god be with the families and friends of all the victimsTragedies like these seem to effect all those all across the world!!!
In Silence
Beyond the campus,
In towns and cities worldwide,
A river of sadness flows,
For the lost and the injured,
For the victims and the families,
Silence continues to grow.
Words cannot be found,
Images cannot be forgotten,
Terror inside school walls,
Shattered windows of time,
Cries of anguish set free,
Silence now fills the halls.
Beyond Virginia Tech,
We all feel the impact,
Tears of pain are found,
The reality of desperation,
Joining hands to find hope,
Silence falling to the ground.
Prayers across the country,
So many candles to light,
Sympathy mixed with fear,
Compassion for the living,
Broken hearts never to heal,
Silence hanging loud and clear.
