the Shattered Plate (for the many under attack)

The sounds of death fill my ears
And takes from me what matters
You want my will to disappear
Now that the plate has shattered

The world I knew laid to waste
What once was now in tatters
Humanity leaves a bitter taste
Now that the plate has shattered

My soul is struck a vicious blow
My heart is bruised and battered
How can I know the way to go
Now that the plate has shattered

But I will find where each piece lies
And bring each back to life
For what is right will never die
No mortal wound by knife

And I will weave a tapestry
And show a wondrous plate
A miracle of spirit will it be
A testament of strength not hate

You cannot shatter me, I am not a plate
You cannot shatter me, you cannot
You cannot shatter me, this is not my fate
You cannot shatter me, you cannot
