This poem is a result of the recent Colombian rebel bombing in Bogota. I love Colombia and like any normal person I want peace, and for the rebels to fall. So here's my poem.


I’ll sit here and continue to wonder
And my mind will struggle to comprehend how all your harm is justified
The innocent should not have to die!
With your hands bloodied by hate filled selfishness
Why is it that you fear yourself?
Fear what you would be without the destruction of peace
Your reflection must make you sick
As you stare into the eyes of a murderer that is you
What do you think at night?
That your actions are great? Filled with pride?
No, neither one
As your actions are nothing but cowardice, weak and untrue
And like the tears of a child
And the death of an unknown face
You will fall, YOU WILL FALL!!!
Que viva Colombia!
