Compassion

A nation decided a terrorist will die.
He had looked so ordinary like you and I.
What did he get out of killing so many civilians?
He had planned to kill more than millions

Nuclear bombs and weapons can only make us feel secure
Hatred is the most dangerous weapon which has no cure.
He brought with him sadness, anger and pain.
We had welcome him not knowing he’s insane.

Isn’t that what terrorists are?
Fighting a self proclaimed war?
Insane with hatred and power.
Awareness of such mad activities is the need of the hour.

Brainwashed with half baked information.
Misinterpreting teachings of a creation.
Unleashing havoc and fear is what they strive for.
They decided to destroy humanity, they swore.

Taking lives and playing God as they please.
Deciding for others what’s right or wrong, it becomes a disease.
Forgetting the innocent is worse than the act itself.
Let’s not print it, forget it by then throwing it in a shelf.

Honouring the deceased for a death caused by no fault of their own,
Is how humanity, bravery and kindness are shown.
