THE UNFORGETTABLE

A journey 
To the land of the dead 
A journey never to be forgotten 
Memories always popping in
So many lives lost along the way
An adventure into the forbidden land.

It was a horror movie 
Watching my colleagues 
Being slaughtered by beasts
A bloody journey 
It was a blood bath
Started by many
Survived only by few.

We went seeking for a remedy 
The healing to our land
For it's time to cleanse it 
From the evil deeds of the past
We all longing for a brighter future 
Don't want our children 
Going through what we went through 
Went seeking for liberation from our ancestors.

Reminds me of the slaughter in Rwanda, but I suppose it could fit so many genocides of history. Your poem is hard to read. Pray for healing
