There was a time before <br />The loud and earthshaking war <br />When some remembered <br />When all was peaceful <br />The birds chirping in their trees <br /> <br />There was a time before <br />The planes came and the bombs landed <br />The children ran and the families scattered <br /> <br />All was lost <br />For there was no hope <br />When the soldiers came <br />And seized the throne <br /> <br />We all had nothing <br />We started with nothing <br />We end with nothing <br /> <br />The world was shattered <br />The world was broken <br />Who knows how many lives were taken <br />We've lost it all, yet we have it all <br />And as one, we'll start again.<br /><br />Tara Sneed<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shattered-glass/
