#Peshawar

I woke up lazily
And dragged myself
Out of the bed
Only to be plunged
in Red

I got ready
And hurried
Round the corner
Without realizing
That my school
Would act
As a burner

I hugged my kid
When he left
And when
I met him later
It was his body
In pieces and tatter

I was getting late
To the class
And I wished
My teacher wouldn't
Notice

I never wished
I would be
On a slab of ice

I was munching
A chocolate
Savoring the taste
Although in haste
I never imagined
You would make
My body chaste

You, a soulless, cruel
Barbarian
Robbed the family
Of a gem

In the name of Religion
In the name of Freedom
You took away Children
Because they reminded you
Army, Discipline and Integrity

Satan would be ashamed
Of the act you committed
May you rot in the pits of hell
And doomed be forever your shell
