All I Need is Ease


Bloodshed and horror, Syria is a disaster Peace and aid, nothing could come faster Mothers and fathers can only cope Brothers and sisters can only hope The children are stuck in a war between ISIS, the rebels, and Assad Everyday that goes by only makes an end seem like a facade A death toll higher than we can imagine The least we can do is have some compassion They live in terrorism everyday Is a prayer all we can say? For the refugees a new country would feel like a utopia But here in the US, some are clouded by xenophobia Closing our doors is the worst thing we can do For people who live in a place where the sky is no longer blue Bloodshed and horror, Syria is a disaster Peace and aid, nothing could come faster
