World War 3 With Everyone and Me

this undeclared war

thats ignored

and which everyone is oblivious too

The same old things

everyday a soldier is lost

and a wave of pain

 

We fight day to day

to survive

but everyday

more tears I cry

 

on the streets of life and death

and everyday I see the same old...

pain

this is world war three

of people like you and me

we all go though the same old things

 

its hard and painful

no doubt stressful

 

the abuse of stabbing words

that scald the air ice hot

and ice cold slaps

each and every act

reflecting and dripping with hate

and eyes that print the distaste

 

The oh too familiar feeling

of abandonment and loneliness

and the all too familiar feeling of....

 

I know what its like to see chaos all around

and then look up at the sky and see peace and blue

as if telling me and you

our dreams of peace will come true

 

I am soldier of the undeclared

same as you

but we will prevail

we will have a story to tell

 

for we are soldiers

of the the undeclared

war

from the inside and out like an echo

 

I feel your pain and you feel mine

everyday the same old thing

people suffering

 

we are all soldiers of the war that is

undeclared

this is so true.. you have written it quite well and many do not recognize the wars that ravage in our streets and homes as they are holding 2 jobs and too busy to see the damage.. there have been times where I feel isolated by many factors... sometimes distance, hours of work, lost friends that have relocated as well as other things.. just always have to look for the blue in the sky and better days!!! Thank you for sharing your emotions!
