Peshawar Attack (Pakistan)

Where are all the kids?

Are they hiding somewhere?

Or we have lost them?

Where are all the kids?

The classrooms that saw them smile,

Witnessed them being shot!

The walls that heard their squeals,

Witnessed the sounds of them crying in pain!

The benches that held them,

Witnessed their fear struck body hiding underneath!

The grounds that became fertile with their feet,

Witnessed their flowing blood!

The notebooks that captured their dreams ones,

Witnessed them begging to survive!

Classrooms are empty now,

The walls are painted in red now,

The benches are lonely now,

The grounds have become graves now

The notebooks held the stories of their murder now.

This inhuman sin unforgivable

Those cowards killed small sprites,

But were unable to threaten the gods inside them,

The school has to reopen 

New brave souls have come.

Its payback time for the beasts.
