Exodus

Dark is the night An eerie silence prevails The ghosts of the dead trees mourn In the silent agony of lost life The birds flee, the animals escape The cruel slaughter of life The Exodus begins …… Says God,” I shall remain with thee, where ever you go” Little consolation does it impart To the scared soul of massacred mankind Life and death go side by side In this ecosystem of life’s desert Thorns in plenty And the minority of discriminated flowers Trying, but, in vain, to spread The fragrance of life What else can the terrified beings do The Exodus continues …….. But where do the creatures with Ruptured hearts and petrified Clueless brains proceed From one desert to another do they go Searching …….. Searching for survival, existence Searching …… for life The nights remain dark The silence as cruel as ever The creatures, but, are no more threatened The beings do not possess A terrified soul anymore They possess the dead soul of life Snatched away at the hands of humanity And what would possibly be more terrifying than death itself The Exodus ends. *******I know its confusing, but if you keep your minds open, there may just be something to understand. Its confusing because it was written during a very difficult period of my life. so just read. Thanks**********
