Children Of War

How do you see them die

And merrily go on in your life?

If blood fills your heart,

How can it beat in peace?

If words can be the saviours,

How can you douse in silence?

Within these finessed walls,

Let the wide windows

Unveil the catastrophe

That war has gifted to life!

Amidst the loud melodies,

Let the fading breaths

Knock the door of your humanity,

Intoxicated by the propaganda.

Emaciated are the blooms

Wailing yet voiceless

For bodies are being drained

And starved to the core!

They move back and forth,

Restless with churning stomach;

Listening to the death knell

With every desire to breathe!

What desire do your souls hold

That murdered your consciousness

And orchestrates them to suffer?

Who gluts your sable hearts

With malicious desire to rule

The graves carrying innocent blooms?
