REFLECTIONS OF A CHILD

As we came across the golden mile
We waved our hands and bid each other goodbye
At the end of the tunnel there's a beautiful light
At the time of birth we are embraced by the light
At the time of death we dreamt to survive
At the time of war I see children - crying, asking, wondering WHY?

The Reason:

It's no economics
It's no politics
It's no religion
Or scientific advances

The World Leaders:

They claim to be bold, so wise, and so old
Powerful, intelligent, undefiable
But they failed to settle their differences
By peaceful solutions, or by diplomatic talks

So they bomb one another
Killing each other
While I see the children crying, asking, wondering WHY?
