STRENGTH IN DEATH.
The evil of the day is enough for the day
So redeem time ‘cos there’s no time.
Not to pray is to be a prey,
And to live casually is to be a casualty.
The day dawns with a new morn,
Unaware that we will all mourn.
People left home with kisses,
To leave their families in crisis.
They stepped out not to burn out
They never got back, ‘cos they were lost in the dark
As the trains came to a halt, lives came to a halt
But those who ached were still awake!!!!
Oh seven! Oh seven!
A day that the earth and hearts were riven.
Can we get even for the souls lost to heaven?
Nay! Evil must be forgiven.
In all, this is the message we salvage:
“It is not over until it is over,
There is no other way except the winning way,
Though we may be mortals, we are immortals
Because we live and leave our ideology
