I See the Humanity

I See the Humanity

A Poem by Jason van Dongen
"

A poem about the MH17 disaster.

"
I see the humanity,
There, inside my heart,
As the flight from Amsterdam,
Readies to depart.

I see the humanity,
On their journey sped.
I see near three hundred souls,
Flying overhead.

I see the humanity,
But I cannot say,
It loud enough to be heard,
On the ground that day.

I see the humanity,
Falling from the sky;
As I do, I hear the world,
All about me cry.

I see the humanity,
Touch near e'ry heart,
This I see from where I watch,
There, inside my heart.
