AT THE CENTRE OF CALM

AT THE CENTRE OF CALM


A quiet cry
Rips through 
The bright dark...
Tears fall
In hurt and fright...

All around 
Life is calm!

Pain inflicted
By words
And hands
Meander
Upon the body
Heart and soul...

Smiling through tears
Weeping
Through laughs... 
Hours turn 
Dawn to dusk!

No safe haven
Does life
See...
For In tears
It, this seeks!

Patience and prayers 
Help not
For nothing but 
Talks are the actions
Taken...

Talk is mere
Speech
In the evil
Face of atrocity...!
