I could not accept her death
I denied it
And I said, ‘Heroes don’t die’
I kept silent
When they announced her death to me
I said nothing
I hid the tears that appeared in my eyes
I preferred to go for a walk on the seashore
They did not disturb me as I was looking at the sea
I watched the sun set and die in the sky on fire
And I wondered, shall a new sun appear tomorrow
And follow the same path on the sky?
Dawn rose and morning made its appearance
Lighting the way before me
And I wished to help the sun rise
And let a new beginning start
The new day was starting and nobody seemed to care
About the death of a human being anymore
Even better, for to me she is not dead
She still lives, in every sentence she’s written
To how many people are we not dead
While still physically living?
When they ignore, forget or don’t care about us
And about what we do?
In the morning I was tired of feeling any pain or sadness
I was tired after a restless night
But if she was brave enough to die
I should be strong enough to get over my feelings
And, after all,
Heroes don’t die -
They live in history...
I denied it
