For Turks, Syrians and others suffering loss

Seizing

Shaking

Crying

Dying

God in Heaven

Is this what you envisioned for us?

Pain

Suffering

Loss

Death

How do we go on?

Sometimes

We’d rather not

Admiring, perhaps, those who endure despite everything

Yet deep understanding, too, for those who choose

To be done

With living
