26/11 – ONE YEAR LATER!!

26/11 – One year later!!

It’s been a year,
Since our lives changed forever,
I still shudder at the mayhem caused,
As our tolerance they tested,

We’ll go weak in our knees,
They had thought, it seems,
They were mistaken badly,
Coz we united as “Indians” undoubtedly,

They wanted to hurt, they wanted to kill,
They tried to give us many a wound,
That may never heal,
But they failed, like they all should,

They ignited our mind,
To leave religious issues behind,
And fight for the country,
They united us, undoubtedly,

It’s been a year,
Yet the bloodshed,
The pain, the tear,
Is still etched into our head,

I salute the brave cops, the armed force,
Their resilience strong and hoarse,
The saviour from the tormentor,
I thank them again, a year later,

People died, but the hopes were still alive,
India erupted, It came out of its hive,
As harsh words were spoken,
Yes, India had finally woken,

Let us have a moment’s silence,
To commiserate the violence,
Caused by the bastards,
A bunch of unholy cowards,

Today I pray yet again,
For everlasting peace and freedom from fear,
A life without a shed of tear,
A life without an iota of pain……………

P.S… i am really sorry for using the term “bastards” once in the poem..
