...THAN GUN.

... THAN GUN.

A voice is crying endlessly,

It is full of bitterness, with the fear of the aftermath.

A heart is bleeding grievously,

It is full of sore, with the pain of the possible outcome.

You sit to start what you don't finish,

Then absconds, to watch tears roll down the eyes of the poor.

Hear the voice crying for peace,

Listen to that, calling for negotiation.

For the sake of our women and children,

Get the bullet off you gun now.

You have a better weapon than gun.

For the sake of the lame man on the street,

Drop down your arms at once.

Your pen is a better weapon than gun.

Would you like to see the walls painted in gore ?

Would you like to see the ground soaked with innocent blood ?

Would you like to see the morgue filled with corpses ?

We don't get to know who is right at the end of the conflict,

Only who is left speaks to us.

We are better in peace than in violence.

Come sit here let's decide our tomorrow,

Not with arms but with the nib of a pen.
