Ode to War
Tear Gas.
Fighting.
Explosions.
Tortures.
The symptoms of war,
Our soldiers endure.
Orders –
Followed;
Enemies –
Destroyed;
Like sheep they behave
They kill and never let live.
Wounds –
Physical;
Psychological;
Trauma
The guilt they burden,
The nightmares they pass through.
Reason?
Peace.
Unity.
Patriotism.
The lie we are led to believe.
Affecting us. Our life, perspective.
How fitting it is
To die for ones country?
When if you survive,
You’ll regret it for all your life.
Knowing that you were just
an insignificant number;
And you will be forgotten
