In the dead of the night
The silent scream and cry
Though no one can hear them
They often tend to wonder why.
The haunting music of the past
Plays in the memories of dead
Eerie cries and drowning screams
Hurt the broken heart instead.
The numbing tears of crippled eyes
Dance against the pale moonlight
Cooling breeze upon the skin
Makes the pain quickly ignite.
Senses stopped no where to go
Ghostly images haunt the mind
Of scared young children all alone
Truths and lies all in due time...
