Life on Embers
How do we restore faith in humanity?

Madhavi Rajadhyaksha
Scattered roses,
what could have been.
Splattered blood.
The befallen scene.
Autumn leaves,
strewn around.
An angered mob.
The flaming ground.
Moments shared
over a bottle of wine.
The cost of war.
Many a bloodied shrine.
A shade of love.
Now of fear.
The bonds of humanity.
No longer dear.
Faith.
Trust.
Love.
Humanity.
How do we restore?
