Scream

The quiet echoing sound that brushed past my ears.
The sound that moves my heart, even though it has passed.
The sound of a scream that resonates the soul.

It makes me clench my mouth and cast away the resentment in silence.
The sound that was struggling, to reach my soul, that is asleep, from far away.

The quiet sound of a scream, that I heard, the sound that only those who listen know, because it is far from the world.
The rock still tells of the story of that small single room, moulded with earth, the room which sheltered that body.
The blood that was shed, to hide the tears, will become the eternal life of the new world.
