Now our hearts hang in-between, and
our blood run more than its acceleration
since they came firing, killing, not animals,
not the culprits
but innocent individuals.

We did not start this chaos,
we did not start this nuisance,
we did not start this disagreement,

but we are now bearing the brunt
since they locked their horns
in a fight against us, the innocent
life has not remained the same.
