The Heartbreaking Cry of a Child in War
War is a devastating experience for those involved, but perhaps the most heartbreaking sound is the cry of a child. Innocent children are often caught in the crossfire and bear witness to the atrocities of war. The cry of a child in war echoes through the ages, haunting us long after the conflict has ended.
As the bombs drop and the guns fire, there is one sound that pierces through the chaos and leaves an indelible mark on the soul.
The cry of a child in war is a sound that speaks of innocence lost, and of fear and pain too great for a young heart to bear.
The tears of a child in war are the saddest tears of all for they know not what they're fighting for.
They cry for their mothers at night
Their tears mix with the sound of screams, bombs and guns
They fear for their lives in the brutal fight.
Amidst the chaos of war,
A child cries in fear,
No longer can innocence soar, and their destiny unclear.
As bombs rattle the earth,
Buildings crumble and fall,
Young hearts filled with hurt,
As they try to crawl.
Why must there be such pain?
Small bloodstained hands covered in dirt and dust,
No refuge from the violence, no way to sustain,
Their bodies shaken and grappled with pain, their innocent world crushed.
May the tears of a child in war,
Move us to end the fight,
For peace is what we should strive for,
To end their suffering, to make things right.
The cry of a child in war is a call to humanity, a plea for peace and an end to conflict.


"As bombs rattle the earth, Buildings crumble and fall, Young hearts filled with hurt, As they try to crawl." This resonated with me. In light of the recent conflicts affecting children globally, this poem effectively conveys the situation.
