Life Moves On
Time passes by
People change
Life moves on.
Pain and trauma stay.
Clock ticks on
Individuals grow.
Forgiveness beckons at your door.
Smiles hide truth.
Mankind tries to heal.
Darkness slowly creeps in.
Time stops.
People pass you by.
When the moment arrives,
All stripped away.
The trauma and pain on full display.
Isolated with no one.
Fear and shame take place.
Hatred and judgement come.
Reality strikes hard.
Alone and no one to help.
Only being told what to do
It all comes out.
Trauma lingers.
Life moves on.
