21st Century Hell

As the parents weep over the loss
the children sit flooded with emotions.

The hate of difference has stricken our world
and the peace we pray for is wanted more.

As we begin to settle back into our lives
A plan is being developed in retaliation.

Our futures are unknown as we move forward.
And only time will tell.
