Voices in a vault
Restless hands initiate sinister actions
Words resemble sharp stones
Shaped by years of wrath
Truth insults such human urges
Yet, shamelessly at war
Trying to crush them
Fate writ with troubled times
Famished hearts’ desire revenge
Peace is not antonym of War
When illegitimate desires rule
Troubled times birth more trouble
Fossilised thoughts are excavated
Horrific remains are repeated
Once set in stone are edicts
Notorious and shameful events
Cowardly human endeavours
Volumes and rows anecdotes
Earth speaks to the sky
Of restorations of rouge time
Translated through voices
Echo among resilient mountains
