The first day,
of horror,
has yet to pass,
& everyone,
is still in shock,
of what's,
been going on,
in our nation.
As night appears,
fears are near,
I wonder if,
this terrorism,
has ended,
for good & forever,
so no one else,
will die.
Those who won't,
give up hope,
stay outside in darkness,
working to find,
those who are still,
living under,
the horrible mess.
Most families,
& friends,
can't sleep tonight,
they are afraid,
to fear the worst,
of their loved ones',
not being found tonight.
But I alone,
know how they,
feel tonight,
for I too,
am having,
a sleepless night,
worrying & fearing,
like crazy of,
what has happened.
I can only write,
what is going,
through my head,
just let myself,
get tired of writing,
and thinking hard,
then all of a sudden,
I crash sound asleep,
where there's not,
a peep inside me,
nor anyone else.
Tonight this is,
a sleepless night,
for you & me,
so maybe we,
can dream,
hope & peace.
