War

They say murder is our greatest sin.
Victory is outcome from the wars that we win.
Thousands killed in the fields we walk.
Demented images repelling men to talk.
With terror in their eyes and hearts stone cold.
Running with A.K.s , he's only twenty years old!
Grenades in their hands and children on the bus.
Tell me where God was to save all of us?
In search of peace for all of man kind?
Deep in these souls is no truth to find.
Government   lies where pensions don't last.
Compelling these soldiers to relive there past.

this is absolutely brilliant
am i right in thinking the last line is about how even after war, the memory and trauma of what they were involved in is forever relived........people now talking about it, refusin to share the truth....everything dampened down until it is okay to show on the 6pm news.
so sad......and unfortunatley too true
you were right....i did enjoy this piece
it was wonderful and the message about war is clear
great work

War is a horrible monster. Thank you for sharing your thoughts in a wonderful poetic way.

And they say "War Is Hell"... yet, there's much more than that and you have explained quite some imaginations there that need to be expressed...

So, it's all good tho...
