Today I Cried
I
went to the wall
today and I cried
I cried for the
living
and I cried for those who died
I cried for myself
because I came home
Someday I will
join
them and not be alone
I cried for the
dreams
that will never unfold
For the love
unspoken
that will never be told
I cried for my
daughter
and my wife at my side
For the horror
and
anguish covered by pride
I cried for a
nation
so absorbed in its sin
It could turn
its back
on its finest young men
I cried for my
brothers
who still live in hell
With no one to
turn to
their stories to tell
I went to the
Wall
today and cried
