Hey everyone! Sorry, I’ve been so busy with school. Tomorrow I’m going to a Homecoming dance, so I’ve got something to look forward to this weekend. Here’s another poem, enjoy!!π
***
Battles and death
Is this what those
Leaders in a cold room
Wish for?
People fighting for a cause
They have no interest in
Sent to their deaths
Killing innocent people
No one is the enemy
Except the leaders in their halls
No war really ends
Because no peace ever exists
Thereβs only the illusion of it
Masked voices and the secrets
Kept safe with the dead
For what?
They make terrible weapons
Amass great armies
But no one ever tries
To make peace
Families torn apart
Villages emptied
Unanswered letters
From your father or mother
War is the worst
Because it not only kills people
It scars the survivors
And destroys the illusion of peace
***
I hope you all have a great week/weekend. Thank you so much for all the support! π
