leaving home ain‘t easy

a mother and her daughter
on their way, searching for shelter
why, war, why - senseless slaughter
but leaving home ain‘t easy.

they give Ukraine‘s suffer a face
a touching story, a fighting mother
why, war, why - stupid human race
but leaving home ain‘t easy.

my thoughts are with them
they are no longer two strangers
their tears - kept within this poem
I can feel you: leaving home ain‘t easy.
