Men, women, children
None will be spared
Cramming things in a bag
Not knowing how they’ll fare
They hug their loved ones
Hoping for a better future
Yet shaking in fear
Of the invaders in their home
Holding all they hold dear
A young child,
Who will never again know his childhood home,
Will go to another country
Knowing their neighborhood is gone.
