I can’t comprehend what happened that day.

All those innocent children, just killed in that way.

 

Did you see their faces, filled with fear?

Did it not pain you? Did you not shed a tear?

 

Then so many bodies, lay one after another.

There were mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers

 

And of the survivors, what lies ahead?

Once the wounds have healed and they’ve buried their dead.

 

Plagued with nightmares and all so young.

It should never have happened to anyone.

 

As for the terrorists, what EVIL resides.

How could they do that? What goes through their minds?

 

I can’t comprehend what happened that day.

They were innocent children, what more can I say.
