Peace That Stood Still in Silence
In memory of a world that forgot peace.
Where are the gentle evening twilight rays?
Where are the soft hues shimmering at the edges of green meadows?
Where are the love-laced songs that once floated in the breeze?
Peace has awakened — amid the tremors of fear and unrest.
Where are the doves of peace that soared in the depths of blue skies?
Where are the rainbows that once spread across the sky’s edge?
In the acrobatics of metallic birds, only terrifying breathlessness remains,
Beyond the roar of bombs, a voice questions the world — “What happened?”
Walls of pride have closed around our hearts,
The budding leaves of affection have vanished in flames.
Winds drunk on violence devour the shade of every flower,
Though the breeze of peace still blows… hearts have forgotten how to open their doors.
Yet — there is still time… for hopes to sprout anew,
To perfume our hearts once more with the fragrance of forgiveness.
Even a single breath of silence can become a stage — for peace,
Somehow… a dawn must return, once again, to tranquility.
