War

Silent sadness in holding others pain.
No narrative to cry, no common refrain.
Accessing deep suffering, reach beyond to contain,
the hurts of a world, at war once again.

Will we ever learn to transform our suffering?
Backfill the hurting with open-hearted offerings
of love and compassion, a self-less mothering, 
to fully embrace our oneness with all beings.
