River of Tears by Layla Yaghi

0 komentar
Down by the river of tears
She the mother kneeled
And grasped the dirt between her hands
Then planted a flag of peace
Her heart wrenched with fear
When remembering her indelible dreams
She the mother grasped
Frantically her last child
...Rocks... gunfire...bloodshed
Tombs filled with children...
She looked up to the sky
And wished to be with her children

...Then remembering her last child
Gazed desperately into the Horizon
And shouted a piercing sentence
Stop killing our children
Stop killing our children
