Nagaski Was Bombed

(Based on a true story)
Dark as evil, Black as night,
Smoke in the sky, horror on the land, people gazed at the ruins of Nagasaki.
Now the inhabitants are homeless and cold, always to help other families and other people, including the ones with skin burnt and crisp like bacon.
With a bad feeling of sorrow, pity and sadness, I ask you this, Did the people of Nippon (The land of the rising sun) really need to learn this lesson? to suffer under this cruel, horrible punishment? Why they did this I will forever never know....
