Today someone died in my family
Yesterday you witnessed the death in your family..
Are we square now?
The vigil in the remembrance of three beautiful bright lights
Reminds me how darkness of hatred swallowed them up
In this darkness
I see the shadows
Of men holding guns and revolvers
Moving around in my backyard and your yard too
Who will attack next?
Innocent victims could be you or me…
Before such a day dawns on us
My friend
Come let me hug you today
And assure you of my love once again
All over again…
