World War

Booms and bangs approach the city

Cursing the situation, everybody gives a sigh
Death rains down, gloom hovers in the sky

Echoes of depression weave through everyone
Frowns await for the black to be replaced by the radiant sun

Grumbles and groans were the only sounds
Hatred embraces all, fatal grounds

Increasing trouble, relations fade
Justice is wanted, they require aid

Kindness and consideration has disappeared, everything is wrong
Love has departed, we all have to stay resilient and strong

Moans invade everything, pondering when it will cease, delight receives a fall
Nothing brings smiles, starting to lose hope, misery runs in all

Only sorrow and apprehension pumps in our blood
Prayers said daily pleading for help, depression floods

Quaking of melancholy destroys everybody’s hearts
Roars of mourn make us feel like a grenade has blown us up into little parts

Strikes of despair hit everyone causing them to die
Trembling with tension, tears being wiped dry

Unbelievable amounts of dread keep us occupied
Violence is glanced upon, everyone’s petrified

Worry is known as a synonym for life
EXiting evacuees bawling, not wanting to leave so they create a strife

Yearning for a compassion to arrive and stay
Zest for life carries on, day and day.......

  2. Ishika....again I don't have words for your words. You have depicted the scene so well. I was transported to the land of war. Great work.

    I particularly liked the ending (with positive note)" Yearning for a compassion to arrive and stay Zest for life carries on,day and day"

    Keep writing good stuff baby. Very proud of you.

    Love,
    Kamini..
