Grim looks at each and every faceNo mercy and graceBlood spilling at an unstoppable paceKillers so professional leave no traceEveryone running like it is a raceLooking for a safe placeMurder all overSideways, upward and underChildren screaming for their mothersVictims all blubberGood-byes to their family and loversSavouring the last moments as treasureGun shots so loudCriminals so proudPeople shedding tearsOthers just fearImpatiently waiting for peace to returnFor love is stronger than death The writer is a Grade 8 student at Green Hills Academy
