The Horror of this History
St. Margaret's Co-Educational English Secondary and Primary School
(Secondary Section), Tang, Angel - 13
Seeing the army walking in with weapons
Snuffing people out violently
Listening to the steps of the army
The fear everywhere
The smoke, all grey, filled up the blue sky
The blood, all red, splashed on the ground
The arrows, sharp, flying all around
The horror everywhere.
The beauty of the city was destroyed
Filled with scream and cries.
Remember that sadness
And know the history of it.
Know the horror of this history.
