Rafay Ahmad Poet Blank verse

Blood Will Follow

May I know?
Why after peace
Blood will follow?

Under the moon and sun
Our sorrow,gives way
To the dawn of tomorrow

Our tears drop,
But not even the rain,
Can match the blood that follows

Kings and lords bet,
But only Death wins the wager,
And the outcome is set.

Both knights and knaves,
They fought so hard
And now they lie in unmarked graves.

Sad is it not?
That after peace
Blood will follow.
