A WEEK AFTER THE ACEH TSUNAMI (2004)

(A Week After the Tsunami we are still looking for Nino Priyanka, our friend who disappeared in the disaster.)

A WEEK AFTER THE ACEH TSUNAMI (2004)

When the nights can’t sleep the awakened souls

Tired of forged hot sun burning

And the crashing waves had passed

Leave the debris strewn all over

Let time answer it

Going hopeless with the cries of the lost

Scrambled at the heart due to the storm

Telling the wounds of the soul that imprint forever

Together with strong people with tears

Together with weakness we try to brace ourselves

Looking at the day that will pass keep changing

Since we are not weak, we are mighty humans
