The War

The calmness of the night
Was shattered by the deafening sound
Followed by the screams
And shrieks of agony and pain
The darkness of the night
Suddenly blazed red and bright
The heat even made the moon melt
The moans...the cries were heart-felt
These wars has wrecked us all
The once swinging swings
The merry playing children
Have become still
Their lost laughter echoes
The broken swings, the charred walls
Portrays the dismay…the helplessness
Every silence is broken
By the bullets…every now and then
When would it end, just when??
We long for peace
The once dominating love
Help, from the God above…
To want to see
the life come out from these ruins
Not these tanks, mocking at us
Not these riffles…these guns
Killing the innocent, hurting the harmless
When would this bloodshed stop?
We’ve got no more stamina to cope
A peaceful life is what we all hope
To see the darkness
Being blazed….with the gold that laces the horizon.
