Three Weeks

 

It’s been three weeks since the horror
Three weeks since five people lost their lives
For most of us life’s gone back to normal
For most of us, but not all

So here’s to us, the lucky ones still living
May we all grow old and grey and blessed with joy
May our days be filled with loving and with laughter
May our dreams come true and may we always thrive

And to the ones who perished, may you rest in peace
To your families and friends, strength and healing
May time do its work and help to comfort
May your hearts be made whole once again

And to the one who carried out this act
To the ones who thought it was ok
I pray the Devil will not find you, may God have mercy on your souls
And I hope there is no such place as Hell

And to all the other people out there suffering
May you find a way to shelter and to safety
May your lives be saved from misery and pain
May your situation miraculously change

It’s been three weeks since the horror
Three weeks since five people lost their lives
For most of us life’s gone back to normal
For most of us, but not all
For most of us
