In the Memory of the Kids of Peshawar

Written By: Aleena Zafar

Think oh you now and then

What a misery must've befallen them 

Lying beneath the dying breaths of a dear friend 

To escape the gaze of the foes 

Think then what a terror it must've been 

To watch a mother figure go down in flames 

  That playground and them hallways 

Once filled with joyous laughter 

Are now stained with blood and grief hereafter 

Who were they? What were they? 

Those barbaric monsters!

Casting a shadow of their dark souls 

Do but see the silver lining in the cloud 

There is born a dauntless determination soo great 

There rises the example of such bold bravery

Tell you,oh filthy creatures,we're a nation undivided 

United in this we stand,united in this shall we stay 

Who amongst you cowards can break this mounting wave of hope

Look there they walk again through those gates 

To finish what they and their brothers started 

In this battle of lost  innocence are born these fierce young warriors.
