Redemption

A Poem by Grimesy
"

a poem agains war

"

The blood ran down his steely blade

no thought or worry to the orphans he's made

He had fought a good fight

For all that was right.

Yet the blood on his hands lingered on.

 

He was a pawn in the hand.

Of his uncle Sam.

Yet the guilt on his mind.

Unforgiven with time

Haunted his dreams without mercy.

 

No longer would he play this role.

He was a man, he had a soul.

A killer no more

They can fight their own war.

All he sought now was peace.
