Conflict

By Abdurahman Umar

Boom! Boom!
Dash the sound panic.
I ran helter-skelter as I sought refuge.
My family’s lives were shattered.
This made me lose the ones I love.
I lost belief, trust, or faith in something.
I look at my family photograph every day.
I worry about my future and life.
I lost the tool to eradicate ignorance and prejudice.
Should I stay or move ahead?
I took a deep breath and realised I have to be civilised and wise.
Wounds are left behind.
Stop the war and make peace throughout the world.

Abdurahman is of Government College, Maiduguri, Borno State
