Poem -

Point of war being what?

Too many people don't look upon the path that they tread

Too many sins of the government

Is why our soldier's lay in their graves dead.

Each soldier hailed a hero in death

But their death wasn't necessary 

To be without their life breath.

Led by a government who leads their country with greed.

False promises made 

Led to their deaths leaving many families in grief.

Why are we fighting 

Why do our soldiers ride so freely to war?

What are they thinking they'll gain 

Or what they even truly fight for?

Lies are made to our peoples country men of the land

By a deceitful government of cruelty ^ their greedy command.

As they sit back looking on

As our fathers brother's & sons

Fight in this world forlorn.

Think of why you should fight for a government 

Who don't ride into battle themselves

Why should they sit back in safety

Why should they be freed from ill health.

Foolishly is the belief that we fight for our lands.

When it's only for the power & greed of our governing lawful demands.

We need to start thinking & using our heads.

Why fight for laws that don't even become as our peoples hearts to death has been led.

Think of your children & how you want them to see

Their world around them & a future with love within their own family.

If we were only to look after our own

Would the world even be fighting

Would we even a war in our world condone.
