Flag on the half way
Blue and white
-the colors if sky
Eleven young people
lie death on the coffin
All of them
had so many dreams
never came true
- too late to think -
What happened already happened
Who to blame for
Ten unrecognizable bodies
Mothers cry and Father's eyes
are filling from the tears
Our daughters and son
were took away too early
People are shocked
-how this could happen
in our peaceful country?
Everything should be fine
-at least that's what they think
Young people with empty eyes
unspoken admitted problems
Silence is golden
but the bodies are cold
Winter will come
and our tears will turn to ice

This poem is dedicated to victim of the yesterday. My eyes keep shedding tears. I feel so bad. I can hardly imagine the pain of the victims relatives and closed ones

    This massacre of young and innocent people is just another example of where life is going. There's no value for humanity. No respect for others. People only love to hate. Another shocking and brutal incident that caused life to bleed.

    Noor,

    Your compasion knws no bounds. You have written about a mass tragedy that I know nothing about, that matters not, As you have decribed poetically the tragedy that happened. However, more than this you have touched on the bigger picture, the politics, the frustration that must have been brewing for so long before it errupted in such a fatal way. A country of peace, yet underneath lies an ugliness that the powers that be do not want to admit to, let alone address...the winter will indeed freeze those tears, hopefully not forever!

    Take care

    Michael
