Love in the Archives of Life

Living
in the archives of our genes
sorrow walks
in silence
among the flow of life
to remind our sorrow
to remain silent
in gratitude of life.

We cannot deny our sorrow.
We cannot run from pain.
Embrace the truth of sorrow
oozing from the wounds of injustice.

We will heal.
Life flows within us.
Remember the victories of love.
There will be new victories.
Injustice cannot run from truth.
Life cannot deny its love
of living.
