The City that forgot to breathe
To leave or not to leave ’em that’s the question? To kill them from bombs or starvation, To crush their very pride or freedom, Humans are now devouring humans! Barbarians ruined their masjids and homes, How long they say o cruel nation? How long our people die in silence? How long the children say with…
