May the carnage end – v2

May humanity rise up
to support Ukraine
in its existential fight
to defend itself,
to defeat terror and
genocide raining upon
its people and its nation…
 
May the carnage end
may the shelling be defeated,
air defenses installed,
to protect these people
this ancient land in Europe,
the skies freed of terror
so a just peace may rise…
 
May the world not look away,
ay their resolve be supported,
the time for action continues,
more must be done right now
to heal the broken, to raise up
the warriors, the heroes, this people,
to prove they are not alone…
