An effort in support of the Tamil Eelam Part-1

They stood alone as everything around them was reduced to ashes and later on became dust, that was cleansed with the blood of fellow humans.

All they fought for was respect, to be treated equally.

Every voice raised in this endeavor was silenced permanently by death.

The only voice that remains is that of others who witnessed it from afar.

Of what avail is this fight for equality?,

When one whole race of humanity is reduced to indignity, In this war of profanity.

Can people witness this with integrity?

Aren’t we a responsible community?

Can’t we fight for Tamil Eelam’s immunity, as we too belong to the universe of humanity?

As we enjoyed every moment of this life, they toiled away in hideous hell while alive,

Looked down upon every second of their life,

Third rate citizens for most part of life while alive,

Never loved by their nation of domination.

Killed by their fight for equality and crucified by inequality.

They now walk alone, for the people who fought by their side, have been buried on either side.

They grieved in silence and were aggrieved in violence,

 Compelled to adopt tolerance and praying for majority’s cognizance.

They must have felt like Negros among whites in the era of colonization by the Britons. Enslaved by the fear of bloodshed, Shackled by the crushing majority and silenced by the murderous government. Will they ever be free to be common among the majority of commoners?. Is it wrong to revolt?

Separation of a state, is it too big an ask for a bunch of slaves to the oppressing majority?

Not represented in a parliament of dictators and represented by the dead revolters, silenced by death. For whose freedom just a miniscule minority is still voicing its support, by withdrawing its support at the centre (Tamilnadu). Though the agenda is politically driven, the opposition and the ruling party in that state have come together in support of the minority. While India still laments the loss of Bofors Scandalous hero, Rajiv Gandhi through its party Congress and denies to support the Lankan Tamils, whose representatives bombed a scandalous man. Is it right to hold a grudge against humanity?, served in the past by the extremists who’ve been completely eradicated ever since from the face of this earth. When the one hurt and the hurter have paid the price by death, Is it still necessary to hold the past against people currently representing innocence and fighting for equality?   

Acceptance of the current situation;

Knowing not what future holds for them, this darkness eluded them to eternity. As their path of enlightenment is marred by bloodshed. They’ve realized that their quest for light shall end in their coffins and politicians shall read their eulogy with fake tears as life beyond death nears.  As at every sight of light, they witnessed fight and were confined to walk alone in the night, as darkness was their safest bet to venture out in search of light.
