Mourning in Pain

​Look at their pictures…know their names.
There are no words to describe the agony felt by their families.
Today, the tears flow easily as my heart is torn.
I turn to the words of my heart for some sort of comfort.

I close my eyes, starting to pray, wondering what is next.
I know God hears me…when will we hear God?
Day by day, we trudge forward, and the pain just lingers.
For so long, we hoped…we hoped…do we still hope today?

We mourn, we mourn….we mourn.
