Bosnia
by Leah L. Cole
Momentary Hell
Breaking in waves
Agony
Despair
Hopelessness
Death
No love
No name remains
Only a frail
Skeleton of vitality
A broken body
Bloody and battered
A shattered life
Comes to an end
Not bitter
Not shameful
Not proud
Merely a void
And no one notices
The passing
The only mourner is
A devastated
Silent city street
Back
