27/2/24 - Who will call me dad?

Tuesday 27th February 

Surrounded by destruction
Every where we look 
Living in daily fear
Last night the building shook

Death on every corner
Families displaced 
All the beauty around us
Has now been brutally replaced 

Now I sit here
Head in hands 
Both sides making
Their demands

Yet in the middle
Here we sit
It takes all our strength 
Not to quit

As I sit I ask myself
Who will call me dad?
This war has taken my future
And it makes me really sad 

I dreamt of a future
With my wife by my side 
Now we just spend our days 
Sobbing as we hide
