Upon the cheers and laughter <br />On this fine and rich land, <br />We sometimes do hear <br />Devastating cries, <br />Unattained words, <br />Desperate callings… <br /> <br />Countless souls were forced <br />To hide, to starve, <br />To Suffer! <br /> <br />It’s gone…just like that… <br />Nothing else left… <br />Yet, <br />Prayers turned to vain; <br />Lives were swept away <br />Like hurricanes that come by, <br />Comprehend none. <br /> <br />Haven’t angels been with them? <br />Haven’t those people out there, <br />Weapons in mind, <br />Care about them? <br />Not at all… <br />Due to those <br />So called ‘unresolved matters’, <br />They chose hell, <br />Resulting in fury and fear <br />towards the nations… <br /> <br />Bring all these foolish acts to a halt, <br />Thou shall not surrender to the demon that controls, <br />Thus making God your best companion, <br />And peace as an antidote to the mind of disorder <br />For every God’s creation, <br />deserved to be treasured…<br /><br />C.H.
