How many died this year

How many where taken from us

Statistics say eighteen or more

One is too many

Not only are they taken

But so are those they loved

Who will never be the same

Who's souls where also hurt

Why are they chosen

Because who they are

Because they dare to be themselves

To be happy

Because another hated them

Because another hated them trying to be happy

And had to take it for themselves

And leave there anger and sadness behind

Not only victim was had

No there where two

Or three

Or more by there hands

We stand at the grave stones with them

For them

Only we can shine on

Bring this to light

Uncover the darkness

Stand up

And hope

For Hope and Love's sake

That no one else will be taken

Mighty glad to see at least one thing being done to highlight today's status as Transgender Day of Remembrance...cuz it doesn't get talked about much like it should:(
