Time stood still,
A moment frozen in horror.
My home, engulfed in flames,
Shattered by the blast
On a day meant for peace.
Fear wrapped its arms around us
As one by one,
They went off,
Echoes of destruction
Tearing through sanctity.
What just happened?
Panic sets in.
Where next?
Are there more?
Is everyone… accounted for?
Who could unleash
Such darkness?
Death lingered in the air,
And amidst the grief,
Anger rose.
Unstoppable,
Breaking at the seams.
I’ve lost faith…
In people,
In God,
In everything I thought was sacred.
And all I can do
Is whisper
Through the silence:
Why?
In memory of a horrific day.
