44

44 soldiers in a field…
Died ruthlessly in a clueless attack!
Blood was everywhere in my eyes
I saw bullet holes on their pity heads.
Is there such a word justice today?
No one is still jailed in this saddest new day.
Coffins were wrapped with this national flag,
Hope that this controversy will sooner be wrapped.
Seek for truth and justice of their death!
Took 44 lives in a woods of dead end
