Who Is Responsible? / The Cry Of A Nation (Recommended) Poem by Ridah Ellahi

Another sun sets.
Another heart stops beating.
Another pair of eyes,
Look out the window,
Searching the horizon,
Praying for dawn.
BUT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
Another soul,
Fades away.
Another body,
Must be buried.
Another life,
Shall live through hell.
BUT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
They rest in their palaces,
Built from the blood of our kin.
While we watch,
As our houses, our lives,
Come crumbling down,
Right before our eyes.
BUT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
What could we have possibly done,
To receive the wrath that we now do?
We carry our loved ones on our shoulder,
We watch them turn blue.
We close our eyes and pray,
For that is all that we are now capable of.
BUT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
We watch as another sun sets,
Sets upon a new life.
But ignites the spark of calamity.
Ignites the spark of vengeance.
Their eyes became soulless,
Their blood drained in front of us.
BUT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
You over power us,
We stand at your mercy.
But hear this now,
We shall rise from this red sea.
Your blood is written on our palms.
The day is not far….you will see.
WE HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE.
