Concurrent issues
A woman left battered and broken,
Raped and forced seeks you to be awoken.
Violence, theft and crime everywhere,
You are to be seen no where.
A son took his last breath fighting in a war,
Leaving behind a mother in tears.
Always overlooking the sinner,
You have blamed us, the poorer.
Earthquake has left us like a wrecked train
Who will you blame for this misery and pain?
A year passed by,
Living under broken and cold homes,
Living under rain dripping roofs,
Yet you have left us to embrace our doom.
A girl with an unforgiving fate
Awaits for your arrival date
How will you come to help?
When will you come to help?
