At the other side

While you are peacefully sleeping,

There are people in this world,

SCREAMING

YELLING,

CALLING,

Out for help,

 

While eating a luscious meal,

People are tortured, starved, hurt,

Until dominance sends them down on their knees,

 

While safely walking to school,

Bullets are shot to defend their country,

Bloodshed, tears and ever-lasting shrieks....... OH! so cruel,

 

While interacting with new friends,

Rival countries make amends,

To kill, to steal, to protect their land,

To never step foot in their beloved mother again,

 

While enjoying time with your family,

Relations are torn apart,

Crying of children, weeping of mothers are not strong enough to soften their hearts,

 

And while falling down and running to mend,

Hopeless victims pray,

That when will this feud end,

 

The humanity that's been forgotten,

The  hatred taken over our minds,

All we desire is peace and harmony,

But its unfortunately true, that we can't bring a difference to communities,

 

But what we can do is stand up as a crowd,

Demand ones' government to cut off fundings for wars, fights and terrorism,

SO THOSE WHO ARE LIVING UNDER THE ROCKS CAN LIVE IN FREEDOM.
