No One Wants To Remember The Tragedy

THIS Is the old house
that negligence burned

you must remember two bodies
still at arms with each other

less the scream for help
where no help is available

less the struggle to escape
where no exit is found

they huddled upon themselves
as smoke choked them as fire finally consumed them

this is the place where beams fell down
charred and ashed

soon the grass will cover all these
the scream becomes part of the song of the winds

another one shall come and take this
place anew

to grow dreams again
no one wants to remember

what was it all about
shall one forever keep the truth?
