Blood spilled onto the wheels.
Hands collected arms and feet.
Possessions lay strewed all over.
Eyes searched for those familiar.
Tears asked several questions.
Expressions echoed the answers.
Lips wailed in angst.
Souls pleaded for a final chance.
Pulses weakened at every beat.
Hearts battled to speak.
Life lay, pinned to the ground.
Death reveled around town.
Black engulfed the sky,
yet hope persistently shined.
Armored in grit, ire and strength,
Spirits marched to defend.
Lives rescued those alive.
Presence assuaged the cries.
Aid swarmed through the streets.
All demarcations were buried.
Benevolence sculpted a safety mold.
Humanity essayed a perfect role.
Perseverance fought tooth and nail.
But alas, as the sun began to set,
valiant soldiers fell into fragments.
Yet the war continued. . . . . . . .
Time came to a standstill.
Beginnings ceased, the end began
as 11th July’06 kissed its loved ones to sleep!
