In Memory . . .

To all those who are silenced
I write to you
In honor of all that you have become
The respect you all have
Is moving.
The lost words are ones,
That scare others.
And to all those who are lost
Because of this silence
I write to you.
To all those who have fought
To all those who have won
And to all those who have lost
I write to you
About all that we have overcome
So to those who read this poem
To those who see these words
I am silent
For all of you.
