WAR

Strangers, not each knowing,

Faces not showing,

Another culture, religion or race,

Life from another space,

Born from beings,

Family at home also caring,

Kill another without sharing,

Another situation a friend be,

Now you a corpse I see,

Manmade instruction,

Never understood this destruction,

Question on lips, we cry,

Answer on lips that’s why,

Fallen heroes and friends,

On both sides defends,

Hatrid, anger, and pain,

Spread across war path, no gain,

Tears and blood the same,

Flesh ripped apart who’s to blame,

But loss, hurt, and remains inhumane,

Blood in and blood out,

Forever a bloody drought,

One last lead in the head,

Not the last to have bled,

Home again, ever proud

No shame but heads in the cloud

No win but loss forever,

Home again so what, whatever,

Till next time my brother,

From another mother.
