Bomb Blast...

BANG!!! It went scattering the people…. So innocent so full of life….
It killed so many that were at the gates…
But were they the only ones killed….
Those on the grounds lie dead….
Leaving those at home lifeless still…
Mothers expecting sons lose their hopes….and heart…
Wives await their husbands, hoping against hope….
Daughters coming back from school…come back no more…
Parents, spouses, children know for a fact…
They are not coming back….
But still a tiny little ray says….
Check the door once for a trace….
As the door bell rings…as there’s a knock on the door…
All eyes, and heart alert just to confirm is it them???
Those that died we pity them….
But isn’t it worse still for the survivors???
What are they but beings that have lost it all…?
What are they but those who cling to the past…
Drowned in their own tears await those long gone….
Heart wrenched with a pain so piercing….
I can turn back from those that are dead…
But what do I do? Oh! What do I do…?
When I see those alive but oh so lifeless beings…
