War and Family

I have never wondered more

What this world will have in store

What will war make us go through

What will we be forced to do

Why if we are all one human race are we forced to kill

Some people go into the army thinking it will be a thrill

Thinking they will get a rush

Until they see friends and family turn to mush

Sometimes I just don’t understand

Why when it comes to weapons there is so much demand

People continue to go to war and continue to be scared

Even more when they realize they have no partner with which to be paired

Some end up going through the war alone

But they are not alone when they’re family surrounds there gravestone

If a guy in the course of this war loses his life

The first to suffer the consequences are his wife

Just like in world war two

When they had more pain than ever to go through

I hope to never have to experience the pain

If I do there will be tears just like the rain

Always hoping and loving but never knowing

Where my older step brother will end up going

Very heart felt. I think I would like to see this in the point of view of the soldier, just an idea. Nice write!
