War of the Faithful

by Molly May   Mar 20, 2008


Fears and worries
Fill the hearts
Frightening our dying young
They struggle alone
Stumble and fall
These burdens are not their own

Fighting a war of
Grandfathers past
Doing their duty
No questions asked
A mouth of revenge
Has a bloody taste
But they don't consider that
Grabbing their riffles in
Haste

Blind eyes
Open fire
Deaf ears
Ignoring shrieks
Mute mouths
Breathing curses while
Quickened feet
Flee the scene

A bullet wound for a
Shot of peace
Makes their world
Go round
