I don't know you but
I wake up wondering
if you have survived the night
Are you sheltering underground
as bombs bombard the city?
Are you bracing for a barrage of bullets
as you cross the street to safety?
Are you searching for escape routes
clutching loved ones by the hand?
Are you hungry, lost and lonely
as your home is brought to ruin?
I lie in bed pondering
if the world has gone quite mad
How can this frightful bully
have such hatred in his heart?
How dare this raging lunatic
cause such horror in the world?
Can no one stop his rampage
of killing and destruction?
What will it take, I wonder
to end his bloody war?
As I go about my peaceful day
you're never far from mind
And when I sleep, I dream
a miracle will take place.
But thoughts and hopes are useless
as you cope the best you can.
Unless this dreadful path is changed
the future's plain to see.
Missing friend, absent loved ones
Empty spaces, lonely places
is all that there will be.
Dedicated to the relentless Ukrainians who inspire the world with their bravery and determination.
