Express Yourself

Be who you are and say how you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Sadness- Boston Marathon Bombing

Sadness
By Maureen Ucles

Sadness
Sadness
Melancholic
Oh so olic of anything
is how I feel
apathetic
powerless

I don't quite
Get it
Not in the least
Why?
Why?

Boston Marathon
Many, many, many
Miles away
Brought to it's knees
BLAST
BLAST
BLAST
too much to take in
right now
Not again
How?


Haven't yet
grasped
the madness 
Sandy Hook
Crazy, Crazy, Crazy
Insanity 
Why? Why? Why?
The carnage
 the innocents
cruel unrelenting
disgusting
pathetic
Numbing
don't quite get it
at all
in the least

Please stop
stop the spinning
out of control
stop the senseless
loss
loss
of 
precious 
moments
memories
and
life

Why?
Why?
Why?
I am feeling
so SAD, SAD, SAD
inconsolable
the victims
remain
lost
bruised
battered
and
some
ultimately
passing
into and onto
the Other Side
before
their 
time


Why?
