The War

** Please vote or a writte a comment thank you **

The war is finished
Yet still I remain
My family were killed
And my house, it’s destroyed.

I often stop and wonder
What was the point?
My country’s in ruins
The people, distraught.

The soldiers seem happy
They have control,
The bombs, to alarm us
The tanks, to march past.

‘It had to be done’
Is all they can say
Yet what would they feel
If instead they were me.

Supposed to bring good
But bought evil instead
The worlds in up roar
It’s worst than before

They’ve caught him all right
But what was the reason?
They won’t make him suffer
Just put him to death

Every night I remember
The bangs, screams and shouts
The splatters of blood
Line every street that’s in sight

I have only my memories
The rest has been taken
I think of the good times
Yet remember the bad.

I wish people would think
Before they rush in
What are the consequences?
What is our aim?

The futures uncertain
The present, not better
The past is a tragedy
That will live on forever.
