A
Candle Burns
As
the cries fade to silence
and hope dwindles
a single prayer goes out
searching for answers
asking for truth
seeking understanding
and comfort...
As the cries fade to silence
a candle burns
in memory
in sorrow
yet, too, in awe
for the human spirit
for the strength
the compassion
the heroism
the love.
And somewhere, in time,
as candles upon candles flicker
and hearts mourn
comes Peace
in knowing that the human spirit
indeed, faith itself,
can not be killed...
They will not die.
