Turmoil

Peace and freedom are so fragile like running on thin ice A chasm threatens to pull innocent victims plunging into icy death So when the military treats the civilians as enemy of the state Ask who pays for their salaries,feeds them and arms them Now they turn their backs on the people they are supposed to protect Snatching the lives of able bodied youths The army of death and destruction pitted against the man on the street Whose only defence is his voice. his words are laced with the blood spilled from his compatriots sacrifice. Power to wage war against the people must be curbed When members of Parliament go to great heights to scale walls to defend democracy when people brave freezing weather to defend peace and freedom Hope in the face of political turmoil the people will prevail Lets pray that the people of Myanmar get to live again in peace in the land of endless coup d etat.
