Statement
This piece is dedicatedto those who I have known or not, to whom death
came early. Not by some accident or twist of fate, but as the result of
some secret struggle of their own. I can still feel them gone. Friends,
neighbors, and strangers, and many they must be, for I have met more than
one or two. All alone, brave and strong, they struggle to choose. Convictions,
addictions, afflictions, as I have never known, but the choices were never
mine to know or understand. Yet, in the end, are we not all searching
for the same thing - peace.
