Stubborn

So much is spoken
by this scene of the world,
a king's stubborn hatred,
a disaster upon my home from God.

    Someone please tell me
    the state of that battlefield -
    is this a sight of a school
    or graveyard of children.

They fall from the open sky
and merged into the earth,
the home of my dreams
turned back into a dream again.
