"The Crimson Cold"

By
Syed Fares Ather

The gloom, the grey, in the skies
The crimson seas; ‘behold the tides!’ 
A silver lining remains unseen
And your smiling face is but a distant dream



Explanation: 
          The age we live in today is overwhelmed with despair and terror. The pure land of this planet has been stained with blood; the blood of the blameless has been flowing unstoppably for far too long, seeping into the soil, the seas, and the oceans (figuratively, of course). There seems to be no hope in prospect, and it seems that the rejuvenation of smiles on the faces of the innocent and naïve is still far, far away.
