It's been a while...
I wake from a trance to find myself in a cemetery,
I think, though it may just be a memory:
A painful wound that I wish I could leave amidst the
gravestones.
The wind speaks for the dead as it softly moans:
“Never forget. Never forget.”
And my eyes sting with unshed tears that I will not shed,
Because a river of tears cannot save the dead.
I have decided that it is better to know then to feel,
To know the story that is seven times sealed,
And never forget. Never forget.
Even so, my Christian heart pulls me to love and forgive,
So I have forgiven those who still live:
Those murderers with scientific, calculating minds
And an animal hatred that made them blind.
Even then, I will never forget. Never forget.
