Innocent Suffer
Innocent Suffer
In the shadows where innocence resides,
Children caught in a web where evil hides.
Parents and adults, their choices unkind,
Weaving a tapestry of suffering, entwined.
In lands where hatred's flames ignite,
Children tremble in the cold of night.
Their tiny hearts, burdened by despair,
In the wake of adults who choose not to care.
Through streets that echo with cries unheard,
They bear the weight of sins conferred.
For parents, blind to the consequences dire,
Expose their kin to a vengeful fire.
Karma, a silent force, begins to weave,
Justice sought for those who deceive.
A reckoning, a cosmic toll,
For the innocent hearts that paid the toll.
Children, pawns in a game unjust,
Their futures tarnished by mistrust.
Yet, as the universe unfolds its plan,
Karma rises to confront each errant man.
The perpetrators, who thought they were wise,
Now face the truth in remorseful guise.
Their deeds, like shadows, no longer hide,
Exposed to the light, the justice applied.
Children, once shrouded in the dark,
Find solace in Karma's embark.
For the sins of the elders, the innocent paid,
But in the end, justice is finally laid.
A cosmic balance, an unyielding decree,
Karma extracts what is meant to be.
In the echoes of suffering, a lesson is taught,
That evil's harvest is eventually caught.
