Shadows of Darkness

And so the shadows cast the darkness
Into the hearts of those who hate
Commanding men to horrid tasks
Tempting Heaven and its fate

Their reasoning, self-addicted
Their violence, self-inflicted

Innocents lost among the evil
Husband, daughter, son and wife
Bodies covered red with blood
Their only fault was living life

 

 

In memory of those lost on November 13, 2015, in the attacks on Paris, France….. May they rest in Peace
