One cold shiver down my spine
And I realize how fragile we are
How insignificant and thin we are
How passionate we can be about a mere being
a mere object a
time in space or a scene.
What a waste of energy that is.
Thinking about bliss
Wishing for betterment and enjoyment
What a waste of time…
One decision from a man
One idea and one hate
Can bring down a holy place
Can bring down an institution
Can destroy lives and life styles.
Where is it that we are going.
What is it that we want
What do we work for
And for what?
Will he take it away
Our security our safe blanket
Will things be the same as before
Before and after a horrible war?

Good write,from the heart.I don't think your voice is insignificent as long as you voice it,it can matter.I also think no matter who we see as the source of our fear it's us that decides whether or not to empower them.Enjoyed your write.

Live like it's your last day...
Dance like nobody's watching...
Love like you've never been hurt...

Thank you all for your comments. I wrote this right after reading our resources for safe keeping our families during and after a terrorist attack. After realizing that we dont have many options i felt a bit vulnerable.
