Mumbai massacre
- Saurabh Santoshkumar


Tears of sadness
Tears of madness
Footprints in front of doors
May never come once more.

As one stands near the pyre
And waits for the tears to dry
They wonder why
Their dear ones had to die.

Thousands of families torn
Thousands of saddening moans
Seeing people getting buried
Making everyone worried.

Fear lies in all
Fear even to go to the market or mall
Hoping tomorrow will be bright
Where the mind is no more in fright.

There is no girl or boy
Who is with joy
It is Mumbai's journey of terror
Which will lie in hearts forever.
