Mercenaries of Death

Every morning, we wakes up
Seeing the news of terror, somewhere
All the time we feel, oh my god
Painful enough, to bring tears from eyes

Many a time, we wonder!
Why do all these things happen?
Why is this bloodshed not ending?
Why do all those people have to suffer?

It wont end soon, as
Mercenaries of death
Are out in the streets
In the name of god
In the name of state
In the name of mafia
In the name of terror
Cold blooded, motivated to kill

Now, there is no place in this world
That we can ascertain as safe one
As, anytime, anyone can blow it up
With blood shattering all over the place

Paradises are like hell, now
When will this mayhem end?
I wonder, what do they achieve?
When they kill innocent people
  
Can they give back the kids, to the parents?
Can they give back parents, to those orphans?
No money or words can make up for those losses
When they can’t give a life, why they wanna take one?

Blame it on those greedy rulers, who
Breaded these mercenaries of death
To gain some paltry political victories
But ended up as the victims of the same
  
Even child warriors are so determined
Brain washed to be fierce, with guns in hands
Emotionless even when blood splatters
Trained tactically to kill, living only to kill

We can only wish
To get them back to their homes
Changing them for the sake of humanity
Healing them with prayers, so that
This blood shed ends someday





Good Morning



Good morning, it’s a new dawn
Wake up from your beautiful dream
Sun is smiling as if for the first time
Morning fog is blowing away slowly

Dew on the leaves has started melting
After seeing the beautiful smile of the sun
Everywhere there is raw exuberance
That’s why dawns are always so special
  
Birds have started flying
In search of food for the day
Owls have started sleeping
It's their time to sleep calmer

Everywhere you will see a buzz
A lazy build-up to the day ahead
It feels like sleeping for long
But there are tasks to finish

Open your windows and watch the sun
Embrace the chilling breeze of winter
You will feel awakened by a fresh dawn
That will kick start a rocking day for you

Keep a nice smile on your face
Walk yourself into a brighter day
Forget all those things of yesterday
It’s a new dawn, to rise again strong
