When They Came

When they came we thought they were Gods ,we basked and awed in their glory .

Blinded by a facade,not knowing it was a farce .

When they came it was genocide ,it was a season of dispair and a festival of sadness .

They killed our men  and took our women ,their hungry thrist for wealth ,for riches blinded them 

and became reason for their cruelty.

As I look back at the home I'm now fleeing ,I realize Gods did not come ,but men

They Came .
