Humanity’s Plea

Shards of families left in piles of bloody rubble

Flee while the world watches silently

No decency or compassion

Better them than me

Combatants and power from every direction

Hate disguised as a righteous endeavor

Disregard massacred victims

Covered eyes can’t see

The helpless adrift on an unfriendly ocean

Build walls close borders and snarl

Nationalities’ pitiless hand

Deaf to their pleas
