Matriarch & Elders

These hearts that no longer beats,
Those words that can no longer be heard
.....They will be missed
Selfish of we to think...
The days of youth would bless us forever
Selfishly we want to hold on to the vibrant
Embracing our growth...
Dreading the decline of pillars
Our apologies for ear to ear ignorance
Because now in the midnight hour
Those are the statements the ring out
Those are the messages that shines through
.....We've witness so many heros succumb
Today, and as long as we exist
Our children...their children...
Will know of you
Because through memories...
Filled with both laughter and heartache
We are you...
The matriarch & elders.
