We stood united
A group unto itself
A place created far
From what is, a truth
We represented the
Coming, A hope of
Understanding
But, even as we stood
United
We began to unravel
Lose cohesiveness
One move away from
Betrayed or Betrayer
To be left bloodied
And hurting in their
Wake
Trust, lost
In a few days time
Our cohesiveness
Broken
Our futures cast
In dark relief
Lost in our own
Affect
To move forward
We were held in trial
To find the changes
Make the difference
Evident
As the Wave began
We waited…
For the..
Changes
