No one knows
No one knows….
*****************
With blooded eyes
And the cruel hands
Red Devil
entered
Into the life of many,
Children,men and women
lives and lives
were taken away
bodies and bodies
the human bodies
were lying here and there too
the rivers,the seas,the oceans
the hills and mountains
were crying,wailing-
‘oh,we’ll not receive these bodies
the children,men and women
playing in my lap just a few days back-oh,what happened to them.’
and were thrown by nature
to the living animals.
Sentiments,emotions,feelings
were broken to pieces
shattered to the demon mouth.
Life is still suffering,
lives are lifeless
the hopes,the dreams,the happiness
nothing is there,lost in the eternal world
only the remnants
of the dream- houses can be seen
at some of the places.
The demon is still alive
No one knows what he wants to do
how many more lives he will take
How many children will be termed ‘orphan’
Ohh,no one knows,no one,no one…
