Hearts no longer beating

Arielle, Birgitta & Emily
Parkwood Secondary College
Australia

Shadows creeping over motionless faces,
Sorrow building, hands shaking,
Lonely souls wondering the streets,
Hearts are still,
No real beat.

Innocent pain,
Innocent death.
Blood-soaked sand.
The waking dead:
Empty hearts and fading souls.
United, we are no more.

The idea of peace in most people's minds,
The calming of aching hearts.
Pain and death.
So much less.
Lives are equally spared.

The living are dead,
The dead truly living,
For peace is no longer on Earth,
But in the hearts no longer beating.
