8:48 Remember

Zeitschrift:
A poem by Rosa Bellino written one year after 9/11

Remember 

Not just the lives we lost 

But the love we share

Remember 

Not just the sorrow we feel 

But the joy we grow

Remember 

Not just the images of terror 

But the image of God

Remember 

Not just the desperation that entraps us 

But the hope that frees us

Remember 

Not just the failures of mankind 

But the potential of humanity

Remember 

Not just the hate we succumb to 

But the forgiveness we surrender to

Remember 

Not just the shadows that divide us 

But the Light that unites us

Remember 

Not just the words that tear us apart 

But the Silence that embraces us

Remember 

Not just the wounds of the soul 

But the healing of the Spirit

At 8:48 Remember... 

Across the oceans 

Across all faiths 

Across all colours

Remember 

Not just this time 

But Eternity

Remember...

Rosa Bellino, Italy
