“Conscience”

I wept, I cried so hard. But this tears can’t bring back my sister to life. My being brought here by my conscience. I want to ask forgiveness. But can she still hear? O heart, forgive me for what I have done, please bring peace to mind.

Dry leaves were crushed down below. As if to freshen my memories that her life perished because of my selfishness.

She was my only sister. Since our childhood, I always believed that I was the favorite of our dad. One night, while I was facing all about to the mirror, with my micro mini, I puffed powder, when I saw Luisa’s face, reflecting in the mirror. "You can’t get out tonight, Lucille." I heard a threatening tone from her. I turned to her, but I can’t resist at her sharp stare at me. "And who says so, my dear sister?" "We are to celebrate Momma’s death anniversary, you know that don’t you?" In a relaxed and condescending voice, I replied "well I don’t care. I’m going out to party tonight!"

Then I heard a knock on the door. I shouted "Help Papa!" for I knew that it was he. I pulled my hair, I tore my dress away as I was attacked by a squad of monstrous creatures. When the door opened the site Papa saw was that Luisa was holding my neck who was trying to make a rescue. But I cried so hard that made Papa grew to the height of anger. He threw Luisa to the corner, where the head of my poor sister was hit at the edge of the chair.

I slowly rejoiced for I have made a successful revenge. But when she lifted, I saw a different sparkle in her tearful eyes. "Ha ha ha ha ha!" O my, Luisa, she went out of her mind. I was not able to move, as well as Papa. Both of us were motionless. And before we returned to our senses, Luisa ran to the door and proceeded to the open gate of our house. We followed her calling out her name. "Luisa!" "Sister!" "Luisa" "Sister" "Luisa the Truck!" "Don’t cross the road, Luisa, the truck don’t Don’t DON’T!"

The next sight I saw was that Luisa was thrown five meters away from the truck. I ran to her and embraced her. Blood was all over her face. In a low but distinct voice she murmured, that made my heart break so much. She said, "Lucille, please be a good girl. I love you. Please be a good girl ‘coz Papa loves you very much."

"Luisa? Luisa? Sister… sister!!!" From that moment I cried so hard for killing my only sister, who loved and cared for me, even at the last moment of her life.

Now can you blame me, for asking God to forgive me? Forgive me dear God, Forgive me!

Peace Not War by Patricia Lithuanian

Boom! blood, flesh, struggle and fear
surrounding in the atmosphere
if one is sulky, one is scorned
if one is not a noble, one is a peasant
there are crimes, abuses, hates and injustices
and the only thing that rules the earth is immorality

Sshhh… silence,
for the end may come
voices are not made to speak the truth,
but to shout and scream!
eyes are not made to see the reality,
but to hide the facts and cry, and weep
and the hands are not made to reach out
but to fight instead!
This is not yet over
this is chaos
this is what we call
WAR!!!

It was a day of in famine
last September 11, 2001
when an airplane crashed it’s way into human life!
The United States of America’s
World Trade Center
Shattered! Boom!
tranquility and harmony was lost
roaming outsider, Boom!

Many lives were gone in just a blink of an eye
mothers died, fathers vanished and brothers suffered
leaving no more but distress
and pieces of mind and soul
Guess what the cause is?
TERRORISM!!!
brought by the power of this indespicable greed

This is the beginning of the 3 world war

or this is the feature prophecy of Nostradamus

God forbid dough in this world

where everyone is divided by one that separate east and west

threw religion and all living creatures that exist comes from only one creator

TERRORISM, bloodshed, showering of bullets,

bombs and missiles, biochemical weapons and DEATH!

The story of why many human beings

who were victimize and sought for moral righteousness TERRORISM

Start walking on ice where being die

in shivering cold and lose their lives get out of my life!

I was there! 3x

And shout!

Will there be end? End? 5x

Flesh and rage hunting in the street of US. UK. Afghanistan, and now IRAQ

Listen! And you will hear a cry of trouble of our fate

so now! Eliminate all your senses talk

and you will not be heard for your rights are separate from the other turf!

Behold for the riches of life were broken because we are dreamers!

Stop! This of hatred, hatred and hatred!

You who did cause for the voice the youth

Youth who had the right to behold for the unity

and progress for the future year

Its time o wake up! Its time to do something,

and the clock is ticking

And the time will be over and then

Selfishness

Hate

Injustice

Pride

War

Kindness

Respect

Love

And at last

Peace

It is peace and wisdom we want like a steel pad that serve us on its step

Leaving on its promise land may that be all?

It needs to embrace the true virtue of peace. Love!

Soldier may march towards the war guns may kill millions of men homes

May be called in danger

But one thing is for sure!

This is not the end

There is hope

We, the youth lays here and wakes up in the advent of war process.

Save our future, join hands together for what we want

PEACE NOT WAR!
