Here I bring you
A tale of my burning home from this dreary paradise
where peace is no where in the whirling shades
of this incompatibility. Being its dwellers means to fall prey to its expected uncertainties
either become
the victims
or firsthand witnesses
of these uncertainties. We are left
in a despair
only to scribble
the epitaphs
over the gravestones
and sing
the elegies
to mourn
in a grief of those falling flowers, Who
in their tender age are being forced
to leave for the heavenly abode
Whose
blood soaked bodies
are tomorrow's witnesses
of today's brutalities.
