Our
darkest day
45
years ago
May
13 69
When
racial clashes
Many
died in the city
The
troubled water
It
had gone under the bridge
For
decades we remembered history
We
knew the reason
Today
we see and hear
The
extremists and bigots and zealots came
Brushing
the familiar cry again
They
forget they are the immigrants too
The
authorities should act quickly
Then
again we know the reason
The
waves of the past came in focus
They
let the bad apples rot for all
On
Wesak Day
The
light will shine brightly
The
sins of the past will not be repeated
We
haven't forgotten the sad story
We
just want to move on
Grasp
the opportunities on our way
We
can't be reading backwards all the times
Tomorrow
is the story of our lives
