Pray For Syria

By Udhaya Chandran B

Bombs or shelling’s, people getting killed

Innocent souls dream unfulfilled

Just born hands covered with blood

Syria continues to bleed red floods.

Families lost in dusty winds

For those who haven't committed any sins

God are you even there?

Little one’s dead which is not at all fair

They can't even bare the strong essence of a strawberry

How can you expect them to bear heavy weaponry?

Injured families pleading for support

Helter-skelter they ran on shattered lands

Corpses found everywhere with fragmented legs and hands

Will this war ever hit abort?

Women being sexually exploited

in exchange for aid, awfully treated

Where's the humanity for those poor souls

for Syria being bombed which now looks like snooker holes.

Lord, please stop this all at once

for blood streaming out in tons

We pray for all to stop

for the rain to sweep the red juice like mop.
