War

Lands both near and far
Lands which are ravaged by war
Difference of ideology
Difference of policy
Difference of faith and belief
Difference of religion and creed
But the other side is similar to me
Why can’t we live in peace and harmony?
Wars both outside and within
Innocent lives paying for someone else’s sin
Who is the real victor of war?
It gives birth to another czar
To continue the vicious cycle
Misleading people to a miracle
The miracle that will never be
Light of day many will never see
Sacrificing life and limb for a meaningless cause
Dragging others into it because
They are on the other side
To respond they have to fight
Many brave men have died because
They had to fight in bloody wars
