While we Died: A Sad Tale

While we died
There were some who came to help us at the expense of their own lives
There were some who saw our travail, informed the world and sought for help on our behalf
There were some alarmists, who reported our gruesome murder, although a little bit exaggerated
There were some who stood by, watched us and did nothing

To those who came to our rescue, we say thank you, for risking your safety so that we might be safe. Without you a lot more would have been dead
To those who shared the news with the world, we applaud your help as you brought our case to the attention of the world. There is hope for us because of you
To the alarmist, we know not what your intentions were, but we appreciate your role in making sure that our case became a topic of discussion in public fora
To those who stood by and did nothing, we understand that some of you are already broken and as such could not help. We pray you never suffer our fate

We Would Not Forget
Those who watched us suffer, did nothing and stopped others from helping
Those who were supposed to protect us, but looked away while our assailants perpetuated their heinous act
Those who supported the murderers and urged them on
Those who made light of our humanity, because they were not in our shoes
Hypocrites who claim to support our cause, yet fund our murderers with ammunition
Our prayer for you all, is that you reap what you sowed a thousand folds

Finally, to our murderers may you know no peace, until justice prevails!

A poem for the oppressed. Those who suffer neglect from those who are suppose to protect them :(
