Prisoners Of War

Prisoners Of War

A Poem by Whitney
"

It's a song about a world that knows nothing but War.

"

A world made up of all our fears
All we have is war
A world that's drenched in all our blood
Many hearts have long-since tore

This world is one huge battlefield
No man will be saved
Sending children to their death
With their bones our roads are paved

We are the lost ones
Ten thousand forks in the road
We are prisoners of war
Forever prisoners of war

There is no saving us...

A world where the strong eats the weak
Their eyes inhabit flame
Mercy does not exist in this place
No one dares to hide from blame

This world has seen numerous days
But the soil counts it's dead
One by one they thrust their hate
A never-ending cycle, it's been said

We will always be the lost ones
Ten thousand forks lead to nowhere
We are prisoners of war
Forever prisoners of war

Don't even try to save us...

Author's Note

Whitney
Note: This IS a song. The difference between the two choruses is that the last one is suppose to show hopelessness. This is my first REAL song.

"This world has seen numerous days
But the soil counts it's dead'

I really like this part. It jumped out at me. A sad world is one that only knows war. We are fortunate.

I must say it's a righteous read and it has great expressions and depictions but i can't pass judgment on a song i never heard I'm sorry may be i lack the imagination necessary for this one
