Blasphemy

Why won’t we end the pointless wars?

We see all the fatalities

Is it in the near future or much more far?

Does this seem like a reality?

 

The devastated mothers begged for their child not to leave

The country is falling apart

Our eyes seemed deceived

Family’s shattered heart

 

The politics here are full of blasphemy

Do we all see what’s going on?

The country’s in poverty

The fighting has been far too long

 

Technology is advancing

We have deadly weapons

The boasting of weapons are rising

Something humans like to do, I reckon.

 

While soldiers take aim

Underneath our skin, we are all the same
