“This Fragile World” (Youth & Peace)

Once I woke up in high spirits and went to school. I didn't notice how quickly time passed. We then went to the cinema after classes. The film was amazing. My next point of destination was the swimming pool. The water was warm and pleasing. After a while there was no trace of fatigue left. I was returning home in good humor. I was burning with desire to tell my mom everything.
I entered the flat. There was mother listening to the evening news. I cannot say which country they were talking about, but there was news of many children having died as a result of a terroristic act. I could hear the loud cries of those children's mothers. Mother was crying too. I took my seat and uttered but silent words. Children like me are dying there, overseas, while me - I am having fun all day long.
