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
