Are you afraid?
Did you see the city burning? The flames raging toward the sky.
Devowering, destroying.
Are you afraid?
Did you see the fear in their eyes?
Did you see the tears, making tracks through the soot on their faces?
Are your afraid?
Did the pain tear into your chest?
Did you harden your heart and turn away?
Are you afraid?
Did you walk through the ruins?
Did you see the child's body, burnt, misshapen?
Are you afraid?
Did you light the fire?
Did you destroy them?
Are you afraid?
