Night of Terror
Midnight came
Rain was pouring down
Thought it was ordinary
Felt safe and sound.
Heard those thunder
Night of terror!
Death came to houses
With its utmost power.
Waters rushing on floor
All lights were off
Trying to escape nightmare
They never dreamed of.
Lungs were filled of water
Drowned lives to darkness
Voices of people rage
Fearful and helpless.
Thousands died
Never saw the morning light
All I hear was cry
From that horrendous night.
