A CRY FOR PEACE!

I miss those times

when i would go to school,

holding tight my father's hand

Times when i would laugh with my friends,

and make huge castles out of sand

The wedding songs would deafen my ears

The beaming colours would dazzle my eyes

How sad it is that all is gone,

no more love, no more songs

Just a blanket of darkness,

that has buried away all the happiness

All i hear now is the din of the blasts

All i see now is the blood of my beloveds

My eyes sting with the pain of the shattered dreams

My heart bleeds with sorrow and grief

Seldom do i think about prosperity,

because survival is all that now matters to me

I ask those who pretend to care,

when will i get the peace which i deserve

Come rescue me from this viscious strife,

for i have a right to live a normal life

Come together and listen to my plea,

before its too late for you and me

Because its only peace that i am craving for;

its only help i am crying for.
