Geetha Jayakumar - Peace Or Ashes!

Holy month had begun
Pious words to be uttered
How can one be calm
On seeing the killings..

It's just Killing of humanity within.

Peaceful planet we were blessed with
To enjoy its beauty serene.
One beautiful globe our earth is,
Where humanity is blown down to ashes!
Wars and battling for one's life going on.
Many are going to be dead and lifeless.

Just turn around and see,
Once when the war is over,
If any human being is left over,
If the war has not burnt everything down to ashes,
One can see all humanity is drained forever in the,
River flooded with blood and ashes.
No one will be left alive
To claim on further pieces of land.
No humans left over.
All will be the souls flying regretting
Over the earth that once looked so beautiful,
Today it looks dreaded and deserted ever!

Regretting for why they have remained a soul today
Had not they been killed
For reasons cannot be justified ever
For what and for why all this mess?
Just a six feet is dug deep down the soil
for one to be laid to peaceful rest.

All I can tell is
Why I am alive witnessing all these
Pitiful to see each blood shed and half lay dead.
Pitiful to see each cries battling for life.
All I can do is shed ample of tears
And pray to ease the pain of wounded ones.
And pray may their soul rest in peace
For the people who wanted to live in peace
But were killed against their Will!

Please think over again......Peace Or Ashes...
does one require!
