Out of the cornea of my eye
the photons scattered
the velocity of the bomb
took away all that mattered
Blown across the hall
the historic moment came
ghostly figures appeared
none had a name
I had expected a tunnel
going from darkness to light
filled with beauty
but now there was only fright
Looking closer
these beings held emotions
sadness, anger, and shock
so much commotion
Time passed
as each ghost accepted his fate
composure returned
at the appearance of a gate
The ghosts filtered through
some screaming with delight
a spectacular world
filled with love and light
Others confused
choosing to run away
searching the debris
looking for another way
Making a choice
I walked through the gate
loved ones surrounding me
in a world without hate
The gate disappeared
saying a prayer for those who were lost
wanting to return to a world
where hate has a high cost
