Devastation

[Alanna]

Despair;
Running through ruined homes
Looking at the destruction
Crying for lost loved ones

Desperation;
Screaming in pain
Salvaging and ransacking ruins
Fighting for meagre supplies

Pain;
Loss of a lifestyle
Cuts, bruises, broken limbs
Unrepairable innocence

Burden;
Carrying the memories for life
Taking care of orphaned children
Dying alone

Hope;
Wishing it never happened
Looking for help
Silently excepting the pain

Tears;
Of joy
Of pain
Of knowing someone cares

Determination;
To build a new home
To help others
And a burning ambition to live
