Dear Nathan

556 11 2
                                    

He was ten
Wore a nice pants

Walked through the crowd
With smile on hold

Cheer in his face
Cheered up the whole space

Suddenly its swept
Nothing kept

All the smiles lost
All the laughter crossed

Bomb exploded
Fire burned

He couldn't see the blue of the skies
Only darkness in his two tiny eyes

He couldn't hear the laugh of those birds
Only screams he was heard

He couldn't feel the cool of the Sunday morning
Only felt the heat of the fire-burning

He couldn't feel his legs again
Two of them were bloodstained

He felt lonely
Mommy and daddy nursed critically

He felt alone
His lovely big bro was gone

Too much times he spent on
Restrained the hurt he tasted on

08.12 'o clock
Everything seemed black and blocked

He blew the last breath
Then forever sleep
