Guided by voices

by Infected with His Deadly Love   Jul 29, 2007


Looking at the television screen
She can't believe what she just saw
Bomb blast and dead bodies
Do they know what they are fighting for?

Friends and family back at home
Praying everyday that they will survive
Hoping that all their loved ones
Will come home alive

They are guided by voices
That they hear everyday
By the big man at top
The one who sent them away

What has this achieved?
Nothing but death and heartache
Another day, more dead bodies
This war was a big mistake

    Nice job, again the only ritisism I can give is to work on the flow a bit, but I thought the subject and your sentiment was great. I really enjoyed reading, nice work.

    I liked the message behind this. really emotional and makes the reader think. i thought that in one or two places the flow was kinda shaky but other than that this was beautifully written.

    I found the flow to be very off in some places, ex: stanza two, you've got very long lines mixed in with a very short one. I also noticed that you rhymed everywhere except the first stanza, unless "saw" and "for" are supposed to rhyme. Other than that though, I think you did a prtty good job. :)
