Its now or never.
It's getting ever closer.
IS IT NOW OR NEVER
If I had to think Of a special quote
Martin Luther KingWould get my vote.
If I had to thinkOf someone I admire
Muhammad Ali's pictureWould be above my fire.
If I had to quote
Who kills more of its people
Syria,Iraq and others
Would be top of the steeple.
If I had to pick
On tv every day
What wretches my stomach
Kids dying, I'd say
When I think of the wealth
The world has for sure
Our everyday ignorance
Really is pretty poor.
We are shocked at the time
We express our disgust
But we still carry on
With our misplaced trust.
We don't take the steps
We don't end this curse
More and more die daily
The problem is getting worse.
Tyrants keep bullying
Those they profess to adore
The same old story
It's getting to be a bore.
Money talks most times
Why not do it now
Why not get rid
the taste that's so sour.
No,it's easier to ignore
or to turn a blind eye
Easier for us to close our door
Easier for our conscience
To sweep it under the floor.
While we ignore,dispute and digress
Peoples lives are still in a mess.
People still dye,every single day
Upload our conscience
For these people we will pray.
We think of them sparingly
As much as we can
All the while being bullied
By a tyrant of a man.
Is there an end
To the suffering we see
sincerely hope there is
In the future we will see.
If a solution is found
That's not dependant on cost
Foundations must be sound.
It has to come soon
Too many people are dying
I'm sick of the news each day
Full of people crying.
Men missing wives,children and kin
They pray for an end,when will it begin.
When is it time for life
To be given a chance
We all need to stand up
And take a universal stance.
Then and only then
Will humanity be the plea
Happiness and joy
As far as the eye can see.
Never ending.
Almost daily we get the stories about Syria. We hear about the daily deaths of children as Assad bombs his own people in hospitals. Killing innocent women and children. When is enough going to be enough? All forces were quick enough to jump in to depose Saddam Hussein,and Colonel Gadaffi. What's so different this time? People are dying,cities being bombed beyond recognition, what's different this time? Why is nothing being done? Why are the United Nations still debating what to do with this maniac? I think his time to go is long over due. It needs to end,these people have suffered enough.
The reality.
Time is the loser.
Death,Destruction
Violence,reduction
Torment,Nightmare
Its really not fair.
Fear,frenzy,hope is lost
Homes,possessions,everything tossed.
Assad sits in luxury,
Picks them of one by one
When will the Syrians
Feel anything but numb.
Terrorised.
tradgedy.
the world sits
the chaos reigns
emotions are pleated
tears are strained.
killing,maiming,terrorising,STOP
Syrian people want to feel on TOP.
normal life, if only for a few
mobilise nations forces,it's up to you.
BOOM BANG
The noise of war,is all to familiar
the Syrian people,very familiar
can't walk to the shop,for fear of being killed
they prey for peace,for the stronger willed.
no food supply,Assad stops that too
his troops bombing trucks,food for a few.
trying to starve them in to submission
getting confessions of their own volition.
think of your children ,starving for days
messes with my head,puts me in a daze.
when is it coming?
The relief,when is it coming? That's what I've seen on camera. A wee girl with her face cuts to shreds with shrapnel. She was begging and sobbing for someone to help her and her people. She couldn't have been more than 4 or 5 years old. All she has known in her short existence is death and war,it's not right.
The Doctors didn't even have medication to heal the girl,or painkillers to help a child feel slightly less sore,but she still came on to television to plead for help. She's the bravest little girl I've ever seen.
resources?
I think most people would agree that Assads regime needs to be brought to an abrupt halt. He kills with impunity without fear of being prosecuted or killed. That's better than most of his people feel every day. They wake up wondering who will be next to be killed in their family. This is supposed to be a more humane world,but this suffering is still happening every day of the week, it seems to be never ending.Imagine all your family sleeping in the one bedroom in an attempt to increase your families chances of survival. That's what Syrian people are doing every day in what's left of their houses.
