World with no color red

I would love to wake up one morning

Not thinking of children sobbing or dying

When I lay my head down at night

Not to see babies maimed or crying

At the break of dawn, as the sun begins to shine

I would love to hear the giggling of my heart and the prayer of my soul

Without suffocating with the smoke of war

When I look up at evening sky glittered with stars

To be carried far, where only angels dwell and fairies fly

Not chased by “humans” with glacial stares

When I gaze at my baby laughing

To rejoice at the twinkle in his eyes

Not tormented, for the millions of long lost smiles

When I hold my daughter in my arms

To sway with tender love serene

Not to tremble at the shrieking echos of  fathers screams

When I close my eyes to sleep

To bathe in rainbow with no colour red

No colour red… No colour red

I dream of a world, with no colour red

No colour red… No colour red

No more wounds… No more tears… No more blood
