A Generation of Change to come

We’re screaming now.

Can you hear us?

Beating down doors.

Spikes through heads.

Not.

We rally.

We vigil.

We scream

Through the silence.

We’re together.

A united force.

You can’t take us down

With the names from before.

A knife through the heart

Will kill a man

But a knife through a wall

Is impossible

We stand for those

Who stand no more

Alyssa, Scott, Martin, Nicholas, Aaron, Jaime,

Chris, Luke, Cara, Gina, Joaquin, Alaina,

Meadow, Helena, Alex, Carmen, Peter

We sing when we speak of them

We scream when we speak of fate

Not fate

Not them

A brother, a sister, a daughter, a son

An uncle, an aunt, a nephew, a niece

Grandparents to come

Grandchildren once was

Never again

We fight against what killed them

And scream to you “No more”

In hopes that all our efforts won’t turn into a damn war

Again
