WHY? Oh why???
He had barely breathed the cool morning breeze
He had barely run in his neighbourhood
He had barely been able to speak all the words
He had barely discovered all the colors of the rainbow
He had barely met all his little cousins
He had barely known the name of his country
WHY? Oh why??
Why did he have to be the sacrifice for nothing?
Why did he have to bear the pain of war?
Why did he have to be the victim
Of men’s greed and insatiable desires?
Why did he have to DIE?
He didn’t have to die, if men had learned the lesson
Of greed, of deceit, of arrogance, of ignorance
WHY? Oh why??
This child didn’t have to die!!!
