Whereabouts Unknown

Inspired by Naeme Disparue: Whereabouts Unknown (A Sense of Belonging)

The darkness of the room
With heavy heart.
We listen to the incessant gun shots.
The children are crying,
Cold and shivering.
Outside our small window, I see
a dying man in the street
moan in pain.
His eyes scream for help.
But the merciless soldiers walk on by.
Chaos that surrounds us
seem like it will never fade.

This is my life.
Oh Lord, why?
I see my loved ones suffer.
My heart scatters,
Like broken glass.
