War


On a dusty path, once walked with pride
a phantom moves in frozen glide

the twang of life with horror stilled
Hopes and dreams and passions killed

with tears of hate ,lie dormant souls
a life once lived , now jezebel strolls

A wisp of blood, a silent cry
tis War , sweet ones, wake up and die

  1. Hey...
    Its quite deep.. deep in terms of probably wht the state of mind could have gone into while perceiving and conceiving the pain being portrayed here...
    Its quite strange - that how a picture can speal a thousand words...and silence can be un bearably noisy...
    but i must say, you have put in the verses so nicely and they are so articulate...
    await ..more from your end...:)
    Lov n Luck,
