That Black Day

The day lest anticipated, I still remember that day,

Shuddering behind the screens,

Gushing waves of murmurs and trembles, 

People running helter-skelter,

Fearing the fading shimmer,

Unloading belligerent men and their armaments,

Commotion signaling red,

Prevailing lull so dreadful,

Awakening those bed-ridden,

Gunshots ruling the air,

Killing countless innocents,

Those hospital beds now left abandoned,

For the war that unfair and brutal,

I still remember that day,

Shuddering behind the screens.
