War


Propaganda Peace is a just a word to fool people into thinking there's such a thing as serenity and equality We go to war claiming its to benefit our country when in reality we're sending our troops into traumatic ordeals with devastating results Apathy When taking a life no matter how you put it good or bad you have to lose yourself for that moment and become a machine, no heart, no emotion, a shell of who you used to be Aftermath Once that life is taken you have to deal with the consequences that come with it because there's so many things that go on the person(s) family grieving, your subconscious eating away what little sanity you have left, looking at your family and them knowing you're a murderer no matter how you try to sugar-coat it You Now you have a choice do you end it all here or do you go about your life trying to coup with your past demons, either way you and your family will still have to deal with the pain and fear
