Blasphemy

In the dawn of destruction, eyes look for salvation, hearts look for the lost prayer that could ease the pain, souls look for redemption from the screams and yells of men and women. What have we become? Who are we? Have we lost our humanity? Have we no sensuality? Have we become a useless number that can be deposited with a bullet? Have we turned into animals that can be hunted? Have we no right? Children who've lost their parents crying for righteousness, looking for pity from the eyes that caused blasphemy because of greed! Why do we shoot bullets instead of handing flowers? Why do we spit instead of swallow?! Why are we trying our best to become heartless? Why is your life more precious than mine? Why do you live in the light of safety and warmth while we live in opacity and darkness? We do not want your tears; we do not want your sympathy... Leave them to yourself; we do not need this help. We are strong, our voice is loud and one day our hearts will be unbound. This is my letter for the people who still have the heart and strength to raise their voice against dictatorship and colonialism. Raise your hands and pray that the judgment day does not come soon, for we are not yet ready to go to hell.
