Kaden! Today I am lost for words
Much to sing but lost my chords
I appear peculiar and unnatural
Feels unrealistic yet sentimental.
The helicopter sounds different
The whirling chimes of it absent
Can only hear the shouts and cries
Of the innocent souls in the skies.
Their lifeless bodies reach the land
Finally today in their ancestral land
Their souls now meet solace here
Were in an abyss dungeon there.
Many bodies now turned faceless
Butchered and killed shapeless
Raped and murdered heartlessly
Beaten and charred mercilessly.
In the morgue without a mourner
Strongly staying without a griever
Disregarded and scorned they were
Shunned and disdained they were.
May these tears of woe of the mothers
Of the fathers and brothers and sisters
Our seven-plus months of separation
Brings us ‘Separate Administration’.
