so much blood has filled the river

I come to offer my heart.

From Salvadorean poet, Fito Paez. Full verse, in Spanish and English, posted here on this blog.

The lines rose in my head when I read this morning about how a network called Pyramid of Peace engaged the Mungiki in dialogue last week. It made me cry. I think I'm afraid to have hope anymore.
