About the Poem

In these terrible hours we were overwhelmed by so much pain, destroying, tears, fears - over and over by television. Even though I don't live in the States, my heart ached for you all. I read a lot of poems, and I was moved by many… as most show love and desire for peace.

Today

Today, I was here
And read your tears
The pain within
Penetrated your whole

Today, I was here
And read your mind
The war within
Blasted your whole

Today, I was here
And read your soul
The wound within
Deaded your whole

Today, I was here
And read your heart
The love within
Peace for your whole
