At the gates of the forbidden city
19 years ago today
they sat,
quiet and peaceful
said nothing.
did nothing.
hunger, thirst, sleep,
none of it mattered to
the now ghosts of the forbidden city.
they sat in silent protest.
hurting no one,
taking the initiative.
all they wanted was a revolution
away from the communist rule.
and yet.
their silent voices
peaceful actions
the angels of Tian An Men square
all they wanted
was peace and freedom
but all the got was
massacre
don't worry heroes of masacre
we will stand strong
and remember you
and fight for your freedom too.
we will be strong for you
as you RIP
Ghosts at the gates of the forbidden city.
