Silenced Now, She Speaks


Once a pretty, happy child,

Silenced now, she speaks;

Of all the evil in this world

And the sorrowful left to weep.

 

My heart is broken, torn in two

And who is the one to blame?

 

The madman! Killer! Crazy one

Who with WMDs tried to “make peace”.

 

Curse them all! How can it be

That my little one was taken from me?

 

Once a pretty, happy child

Silenced now, she speaks;

Of all the evil in this world

And the smell of death which reaks.
