Oh my eyes, the atrocities I see!
Humans destroying humans,
Religions extinguishing religions,
Brothers endangering sisters,
Nation against nation, globally, everywhere!
Children endangered, women sexually humiliated.
All subjects of Mr Terror.
My ears are numb, they have forfeited their sense,
To bomb blasts and daily grenades,
To ruined buildings, a grim history,
Of burnt bodies on blooded streets,
All hell is broken loose, Heaven come to my rescue,
Take me away from Mr Terror.
I have been demonised,
Made prisoner to silence,
My dreams are shattered, my thoughts crippled,
My soul haunted, I cannot face my neighbour,
They have become strangers, my brothers too,
At the hands of Mr Terror.
Armageddon has begun, hunger and disease,
Spread like a virus, your fear and hatred spread,
Their contagion, like wild fire,
Yet, like a phoenix I rise from the ashes of your destruction,
Arise, recovered from the virus,
The purpose to stop Mr Terror.
I have been demonised, Made prisoner to silence, My dreams are shattered, my thoughts crippled, My soul haunted, I cannot face my neighbour, They have become strangers, my brothers too, At the hands of Mr Terror......so beautifully executed... Fantastic poem...award winning
Yes! Hatred and war will never bring us peace on earth. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
**************************** ABOUT Anzelyne's poem **************************** after the murdering of so many innocent people in Paris, on November 13th,2015, a publishing project came about... I gave it the title: ‘POETRY AGAINST TERROR’, as a tribute to the countless victims of terror, worldwide. I invited many poets, whom poetry can be read at PoemHunter, to join me, so to write an ebook together.
