Reflections of War
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I look right and left.
To find my surroundings sky high of bodies, and I wonder why.
Far off into the distance, I can see it, The Resistance.
Why must we fight, it is stupid.
But then I realize who they are, how ruthless.
I want to live in a world with peace,
Where my people are not brought down to their knees;
Decapitation… something I see every day.
Tow; the sound of a gun crack no longer bothers me.
I have learned to live with it.
I want to see my family again… that will have to wait until the next life.
