Little hands


  • Stomping ground
  • shaking crowd
  • marching on
  • a moving pawn
  • hiding tears
  • raising spears
  • running forth
  • towards the north
  • the battle so far
  • skin to marr
  • silent air
  • a scream to tear
  • blood soon spills
  • washing over the hills
  • little feet patter
  • causing the ground to splatter
  • children scream
  • together a team
  • mothers all gone
  • fathers a faded dawn
  • a small war
  • with souls to pour
  • small hands raise
  • not to praise
  • smoke clears
  • dead are peers
  • fallen soldiers
  • fire smolders
  • children dead
  • layed in a sodden bed
