Aleppo’s Tears
by Ershad Khan~
~
It’s getting dark and cold
But she’s running again,
There is no time to wait
When misery unfolds….
~
From street to street
Block to block
They bombed and shattered shelters
Brick by brick.
~
Where will she run now?
With her innocent kid
He’s tired and hungry
He can barely breathe!
~
No trace of her husband
And her angelic daughter
Aleppo has turned into
A land of slaughter!
~
A whole generation
Bombed, shelled,
Tortured and raped
I gently change my TV channel
Watch something else instead.
~
Their unspeakable misery is
Advertisement
Happening in a distant shore…
~
Aleppo’s Tears
Don’t reach my door !
