Oorlog,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018t is koud en donker om ons heen,<\/span>
\nhet geluid van een harde knal gaat ons door merg en been.<\/span>
\nDan horen we allemaal stemmen,<\/span>
\nveel gegil en geren, de paniek is niet te remmen.<\/span>
\nDan word er hard op het luik boven ons hoofd geklopt.<\/span>
\nIedereen zwijgt, houd z’n adem in tot het gebons stopt.<\/span>
\nIn het midden van de ruimte steekt iemand een kaars aan.<\/span>
\nHoelang zullen we met deze angst in deze kou nog door moeten gaan.<\/span>
\nEen vrouw begint te huilen, haar man en haar kinderen leven niet meer.<\/span>
\nZomaar doodgeschoten, in koele bloede, door een man met een geweer.<\/span>
\nAlleen maar omdat ze even buiten liepen,<\/span>
\nen de kinders om hun moeder riepen.<\/span>
\nAch hoeveel levens gaat het nog kosten, hoelang gaat het nog duren,<\/span>
\nkan er dan niemand ons een heel klein beetje vrede sturen?<\/span><\/p>\n

Geschreven naar aanleiding van de golf oorlog door D.S. op 2 januari 1993<\/span><\/p>\n

War,<\/span><\/p>\n

Surrounded by cold and darkness<\/span>
\nThe sound of a loud noise goes right through us<\/span>
\nA lot of voices all around,<\/span>
\nFootsteps, screaming, such a frightning sound,<\/span>
\nA knock on the hatch above our heads,<\/span>
\nnobody speaks, hardly breaths, filled with dreads.<\/span>
\nSomeone lights a candle in the middle of the room,<\/span>
\nHow long we have to live with this fear, cold and doom?<\/span>
\nA woman cries, her husband and children are dead.<\/span>
\nKilled by a man with a gun, they where no threat<\/span>
\nThey just walked outside,<\/span>
\nsurching for there mother, who lost them out of sight<\/span>
\nHow much longer wil it last, how many lives will it take?<\/span>
\nCan’t someone send us some peace for our sake?<\/span><\/p>\n
