War |
| We never asked for war |
| Nor in the deepest darkest corners of our minds |
| Can we contemplate its eternal horror? |
| Carnage incomparable, human squander |
| It’s neither sweet nor fitting |
| Fighting; |
| a senseless call to arms |
| Through lifeless eyes I can still see |
| The bombers flying over |
| Bombing the path to peace |
| Who condones this bloodlust? |
| The skin of my face sticks to the cold concrete |
| My blood siphoning from my body by fellow man |
| I can still feel the shrapnel searing limbs |
| I can still breath but the gas burns my lungs |
| I can still speak, asking, but there is no answer |
| I can still smell life’s sweet aroma |
| But now I can taste death |
| I can hear God calling |
| But ceremony is short |
| Greater men? |
| Greater wars? |
| Were they scarred |
| Scared, lonely as I for lost cause? |
| When fear is spent, I feel the numbness that makes me |
| Long for cold caress |
| It’s over, cruel finality that disallows family |
| Love, useless lamenting lost chances |
| Welcome my lord, farewell my love |
| We never asked for war |
