Crush Dreams



The sun has disappeared
The sky wrapped in a blanket of darkness.
The gushing whirlwind and splattering drops crush the surfaces.
 A sad coldness
 

The crying children hurdle in the mothers arms no where to go
Afraid of the fire, the sound of guns and heavy feet's around them.
Lifeless bodies scattered around them.
Overtaken by hunger murmur in warmness .

For them no tomorrw was promise.
They dreams of  a new day yet to come
For the battle is long to over.
But mothers wonder in hope for they future happiness.
