“WHY ME”!
The stars & moon
Come out to play
Is it already
That time of day?
The stars go twinkle
Twinkle brightly in the
Dark inky sky
While the moon
In her silvery shoon
Go floating by!
As I lay me down
To a peaceful sleep
Hearing a faint voice
It seems from
Far away land
Awake I did keep:
“Please please with
Tears in my eyes
As well as on bended knee
Stop this Depravity Racism
Discrimination Bigotry”
I have no where to go
Or to hide
No food to eat
Except dust mud
And stone to bite
No cozy bed to sleep
No pillow for my head
Missing my darling mom
As well as dad who at
Night would read me book
And tuck me to bed
After having lost
My entire loving family
Does any one have
Ounce of pity?
I am tired hungry
Dusty & cold
Am bloodied all over
Scabs covering my body
Wandering hither & tither
Amongst the lonely streets
Bare footed & corns on my feet
Surrounded by dead bodies
Hoping against hope
Somebody to meet
There are many
Innocent children like me
Who have committed
No crimes against Humanity
Why should we suffer like this?
I would like to ask:
“Why Me”?

Beautifully describes the atrocities of adults and the state of little innocent children caught in the fighting. Thanks Farida Bam.
‘W H Y M E” describes everything when you ask GOD why me
Written with a lot of compassion and sensitivity.
