The Sky and The Child

Rumbling like the grumble of the stomach
Lightning cracks and screams,
The sky weeps today.

So sad it turned black like the doomsday,
Crying over the dark world for the child 
Who went hungry today.

The building are decimated,
No house to sleep.
And the sky can't seem to stop it's weep.
Truly heartbroken from inside they both are.

Blood, blood everywhere,
Stained on the machines.
Hefty people everywhere,
Decimating everything like machines.

Justice seems far,
Death is nearer.
The path has never been clearer.
But he longs for justice.


May the blood get washed away,
For the sky weeps today.
May they both become happy someday.
May he eat food under the blue sky someday.
