Whither the winds of change we dream
Lost in the vocals of many a scream
Treacherous fibre of a friendly hand
Dangerous liaisons of a dangerous land
No scars to show what History has done
No wounds to show of the present one
Brutal killing of innocent minds
Love lost amidst hateful kinds
Man kills man for reasons unknown
Glory to the past seeds sown
Year after year we live in terror
Day after day we die due to an error
Hatred rains when it pours
Spews venom when it roars
Valiant mobs of destruction
Little sense of direction
Meandering floundering aimless
Ruthless satanic shameless
Author notes
Hate was a deadly poison
India can never be a bedrock of peace and harmony
History will always be a mute testimony of how the pillagers invaded and destroyed India's hospitable culture and then on they have remained stained gained pained
God Bless India

Oh, India is not alone
Such passian pours with truth and wisdom, I only wish that is was just India who has known this fate, perhaps then there could be found repair to all that have felt such sad dispair. Cruel lack of thought and care unknown is in the inards of this Earth. "Rage on against the dying of the light. Do not go gently into the night."
