My Beloved

As I think of Kenya, my beloved, James Blunt's song echoes in my ears and as my jaw drops in disbelief of the wanton destruction and the absolute disregard of human life. I refuse to accept that this is my Kenya, My Beloved. We all pray for peace and calm and that hope is restored to the hearts of all our country men. That innocence is restored in the eyes and heart of our kids, the future of our beloved.


James Blunt - No Bravery Lyrics

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
