Innocent blood
Hidden in a hole, waiting for the promise their mom and dad made to them,
The promise to come back, for her and her little brother.They step out, expecting to see the light but saw blood,
Their mom and dad lying dead on the floor, executed by the terrorists.
She was only 12 years old and her brother was five.
They had nothing left but each other.
These terrorists took everything from them, their land,
Their family, everything.
They got captured and treated as slaves.
They went through days of hunger, their owner was so cruel
He would eat in front of them and wouldn’t give them a bit.
They got beaten for disobeying.
Beaten so hard that they got scars that were forever going to last.
Little boy only five, sick and pale, of hunger and tiredness.
Had to watch his sister get abused by their selfish owner.
He tries to stop him, but didn’t have the strength to move.
Tears were rolling down his face.
“Please don't hurt her, please stop.” he says as loud as his thirsty throat would let him.
But their owner didn’t stop.
His sister looks him in the eyes and says;
“Brother it’s okay don’t cry, close your eyes and I promise when you open them it will all be over.”
Little innocent boy so pure hearted does as he was told.
And when he opened his eyes his sister was crawling to him.
He knew she was in pain but she held back her tears.
They held each other as tight as their fragile hands could,
Then he said “Sister I wish we could be with mom and dad again,I wish we could be free.”
As their heart beat slowed down whenever one heart beat went by,She sung the song their mom use to sing to them, the song of the lost child.
And thus together they rested in peace and found freedom…
