Yet Again

They strike again
We bleed again
How long is this gonna last, I wonder
The answer comes,
A scary thought I dread to voice
Until we learn to value human life...

Muted spectators,
That's what we have become
What can we do
Is all we ask
We shrug and move on
That's all we do
But oh, there's a lot more we can do
If only we believe, that
Yes, we can!

Resilience, often mentioned
Would be needed again,
For Bombay bleeds
It's time to grieve
But not to kneel

"Yet again", a suitable title. Tragically and frustatingly suitable.

Random Guy said...

@ Chandni

Yeah its frustrating... even more so because it's not as if our efforts at countering terrorism have failed; despite suffering the most, india hasn't put any strategy in place to counter these terrorists..
