Why
The two smiles
cry and reminisce, the misfortunes brought
by those who
rule.
Time stopped, all
the houses emptied, the lights
went out all at
once, everything darkened.
Sirens
sounded everywhere, guns and machine guns, fire, smoke
and cries frightened
the children.
Voices are no
longer heard, only the little birds, fly and
sit high up in
the branches.
The trees have withered,
no one cares, the leaves
turned yellow and
it started to rain.
Dogs are roaming
in the streets, looking for their masters,
they are crying
plaintively, the heart darkens.
They are still
waiting, looking far away, hoping to see them
coming to run
close to them.
Gionis set up a
dance, mourning his brother - a voice that
sounds heavy - he
does not lose his rhythm.
The sun ascented,
at the edge of the sky, then the hands
were given, peace
to be everywhere.
The streets
flooded, voices, joys, songs, and their
city came to life
in a magical way.
And even if the years
pass by, we never forget, the time
when they will
come to the lands they lived, the people seeking
for justice
again.
