Family Tree updated. Title change and addition LULABY
Lullaby
Names sung one after the other
Births . Deaths
Faceless memories
Litanies of Hail Marys
Murmured in Holy Rosary
Lost
In a circle never ending
Silent blood
Running in my veins
Silent voices
Never telling
What they now know
Silence of a mystery
Just one bead in a row
Seeking a knowing
In past time
My singularity uniquely common
In familiar reality
Seeking solace in the company
Of all those who were mine
Seeking reasons for my beginnings
And the why
I have to end
Just another way of getting through
Just another lullaby
