Miserable Day
May 20, 2013
They looked to tomorrow,
but tomorrow never came
Those who fought,
left blood on the pavement
to drip through the cracks
The city still lays in shadow
no red dawn glow
for tomorrow never came
The flag they raised
flies in tatters on the wind
the people look to it
as they looked to tomorrow
even though tomorrow never came
Gunpowder scent fills the air
near the last stand of our brothers
for they were fighting of tomorrow
but tomorrow never came
