Men of dark

Men of dark

A Poem by Naanu

In the farthest corner of the land,
a soul every second,was unleashed.
a brother was slain,
a widow was made,
throughout the land a pain of tear!!!

To those who were caught up here,
death is the ultimate fear,
but only second to torment!!!

It was another war of brothers
that saw a series of slain.
eyeballs off its socket.....
heart apart from locket....
were all but a child's play!!!

The garbage bin filled everytime
all wastes were biodegradable...
for it was a "hand"
that argued against them!
a "tongue"
that voiced against them!
a "pair of eyes"
that caught a glimpse of them!

Through the hills they hid
murder was all they did!!
setting for them a line of rules(?!)
abiding them they stood apart!!!

To prove us their martyrdom,
they gave us a bone chilling scene
downing a million of innocents
a great set of five became martyrs!

To prove us their war for struggle
they occasionally blast towers
leaving dozens of mothers childless
claimed for incident with pride!

Lineage by lineage
'it' was preserved and passed!
not just the mix of DNAs
but fused with scar of vengeance!!!

Lovable children of my mother,
we know you don't fear dark!!
but why not taste the golden ray
like the rest of us do?

Brave soldiers,
we know you are too smart!!
but why not you erase hatred,
on the rest of us,you have?

Even the dates of 11/26,9/11
freezes us!
doesn't our tears do it to you?
we have lost lives and lives
in struggle with you!
but that doesn't mean we QUIT!!!

Men of dark!
enough of the "dark history"
you penned!
enough of the "wars of twilight"
you waged!

Else i fear we'll
droop and drop you onto dust someday!

May be we seem lost,
but our spirits are still on fire!!!
