Today, the world went quiet,

Hushed voices told us to listen

Expecting to hear some truths,

Don’t you know, what’s going on?

Realisation hasn’t shattered,

Every waking moment you have?

Are you sure you sat up and listened?

Darkness has descended upon us,

Fear has worked its way in,

Until now, the noise kept it at bay,

Look to the skies, and you see what we see

Shocking isn’t it?

I felt the same way,

Looking up there,

Expecting some answers,

Nothing came, nothing to hear,

Can’t you see?

Everything has been silenced.
