I'm so broken by this gory sight.
Children smashed on the wall by adults,
who I'm sure are also fathers of children,
all because of religious sentiments.
Is it related to religious and ethnic cleansing,
I cannot say and do not know exactly,
but whichever one it is,
it is actually not allowed and,
you have no moral justification to **** a child
or anyone at all for the sake of religion.
Whatever reason any religion
have in order to **** so I can be
converted into believing in your God is totally
and completely out of place.
So wrong in all its ramifications.
There's no law or reason for you to be
forceful  in winning my love for your God.
You messed with my faith which is my strength.
You took away my dignity and my pride,
my culture,my tradition and my language.
My whole life fizzled out because of you,
I can't remember my past
because you changed my name.
Your religion becomes my pain,
and not my passion.
Forced to be a follower not of my will.
That is not who I was but who you
want me to become not of my choice.
You want to take my history,my identity
and my humanity with violence.
Let me hasten to tell you something
you probably don't know,
as long as God is on the throne,
that will never happen.
