"They were our sons," she screamed "how could you do that send them to be slaughtered! You knew you knew it was a trap! A trick!" she tightened her grip the knife held by her side, hidden. She walked toward him. Before he could stop her she jammed it up under his ribs.
"How could you let them go? How?" she whispered as she lowered him down into the dirt.
"They were our sons."
They were our sons she screamed how could you do that send them to be slaughtered you knew you knew it was a trap a trick how could you let them go how she whispered
Shut by the current,
by pressure,
by no one ,
just as the window opens.
Build me up so I may be a place for you to stay,
To play among the ocean waves and wile away the day.
And when the sun paints colors on the sky and shining sea,
Away you'll run to better things, much bigger than me.
There I’ll stay amid the sparkling grains of sand.
Not so tall after all, made by little hands.
Now the salty foam has come and worn me down,
And Soon I will dissolve back into the ground.
