The Requiem Poem by Eleven Lin

On the land where a war is ongoing,
There're corpses living and souls dying.
Drenched in blood, the river flows.
Full of intense heat, the wind blows.

Shedding invisible tears, the flowers remain
With an endless and unbearable pain.
The sunlight can't be seen, what a gloomy sky.
Hunger for the carrions, the vultures fly.

Darkness and silence descend to this ground
When merciless gunfire spreads around.
Children crying, the sacrifices are meaningless.
From their faces tears fall down soundless.

A bell tolls in the deserted valley.
It's for whom it sounds so mournly?
