today

in His name, the Giver, the All-Knowing.

and peace be upon you.

today,

i felt tears drop onto the palm of my hands,

realizing how small i am,

not knowing what is going on,

except through the words that appear before the screens,
and the sound waves through my ears.

today,

i felt tears drop onto the palm of my hands,

praying that everything over there is still fine.
