It seems like yesterday

But it’s a fact that I

Went to there years back

When the weather was so dry

 

I went to my old home

That lies in the southwest

I had never been to there

Since the last seen protest

 

It was a communal riot

That led me fled away

Since it was too dangerous

For me if I would have stayed

 

I saw people fighting over there

And bloodshed on the road

A bloody genocide

Organized in name of God

 

I didn’t know what’s the outcome

Of this idiotic fight

But in this violent act

I thought nobody was right

 

Their cruel behavior caused

People leaving their own homes

And those who lived in families

Were later left all alone

 

The extremists killed ruthlessly

All those who defy their thoughts

Though they never gave any logic

In favour of the fight they fought

 

How rigid are the boundaries

Of these communities prevailing

They try to teach peace

But they themselves are failing

 

If we want to change this world indeed

Then we have to end this fight

Let one practice his religion

There is no question of wrong and right

 

But don’t try to influence

In other’s thought and style

If you think only you are right

Then you better think more for a while
