What is War?


What is War?

War is Fighting.

War is Death, waged on man.

War is the conflict of the mind, in action.

War is the thing we think that will accomplish everything,

Yet nothing comes from it.

War is where innocent lives are taken,

So that innocent lives are safe.

War is Bravery, Courage, and Honor.

Whenever you see a veteran on the streets, in the restaurant, or at your job,

Stop by and sallute him.

War is his living past.

War is his fighting for our Battles.

Just another girl in the messed up world we live in who loves when people put our feelings into words.
