In the aftermath
Silent tears
Unspoken fears
Amid the crushing silence

Who is there to help?
Send out a prayer
Is no one there?
Anxiously you wait

A rustle in the leaves
Tiny footsteps
Help does approach
Upon the silence it does encroach
An opening

Lift your head
See the shining light
View it not with fright
It’s there to guide the way

No more darkness
When you heed the call
No longer can you fall
Your steps are always guided
