Imagine a world turn completely around
a boy and his mum and dad
and what we’ve found
is both of his parents
have died
its too much
to come to terms really
and really as such
he sleeps tween their graves
in the sand every night
their love was his rock
but now in his sight
all he sees is the sun
and the sand and the pain
the misery and true his prostration again
theres an uneasiness
he feels he’s doomed
either side of him
his parents entombed
clearly he’s mortified
what can he do
he can’t bring them back
though of course he wants to
his life torn a’sunder
his torture is great
exposed to it all
what will be his fate
if he were older
perhaps he would fight
and hope for revenge
from this continual blight
that threatens his being
that cuts through his core
and leaves him so broken
like never before
punitive measures apparently are
taken by one side
as each now does scar
the future that crumbles
down into the sand
where in lies his parents
who might understand
the torment he’s feeling
the retaliative moves
the civil unrest
right across the roove’s’
which then blazes down
and the sand rises fast
where his shadow creeps forward
and is often cast
War the belligerant energy
rages
chivalry conquers the
darkest of pages
strategies, tactics
and embattled souls
who have little food
and much smaller roles
so many are starving
young children of war
of woe they must grow
in this violence ,and whats more
must try to succeed and encourage
and stand
in the path of the angels
on Syrian land
the boy sleeps a little
his parents will be
there in the sand for eternity
that loved ones are lost
breaks the heart of the strong
when its parents the youth
must perceive just how wrong
the elders have been
and the foreigners too
who have meddled and influenced
it seems as they do
created a miasma
of matter so dark
resulting in one after another
attack
