Flow Along

They lay in the blood stained beds
Can't eat with the wounded bodies
Sleep is a nightmare for them
Desire to live!! Some hope of justice!!

No one around! Nobody to help!
Lying on the bed with a small ray of hope!
That punished will the culprit be!
That wiped out will the injustice be!!
Might is not right be proved!

Was it their fault?
To have the skin of other color?
Was it their mistake to be born elsewhere?
Was it justified if they are attacked!
Because they don't belong here ?
Because "we" don't like 'em?
Because "they" don't talk the same language?

Oh my dear fellow humans!! Shame on you!
Not for your immaturity! Not for your actions!
Not for your attack!! Not for your stupid hatred!

But for your shameless parents!
Who still feel you be not punished!
For trying to protect you!
For keeping the truth in the dark!
For committing the sin!

Sin of injustice! Sin of hatred!
Sin of  letting you go!
Sin of the culprits go free!

Be a strong man you Beast!! Learn!! Be mature!!
Not your own birth right is this country! 
No one owns anything!!

Be a part of the river and flow along! 
Don't be a rock to oppose the waves!!
Lest! Thou shall be hit back!!
And thrown away from the flow!!
Torn to pieces that never see the light!!
