It has caused so much suffering, so many fears.
Children run in the streets, trying to find their way home,
The village is now unrecognizable and they're all alone.
Mothers search for their children, not knowing of their fate,
They're wondering if they're still alive or if it's too late.
Buildings collapse around people, falling on passers by,
Many have given up, they don't care if they die.
No one can escape from the screams and the pain,
The fights are pointless, there is nothing to gain.
So many lives lost, it's not over there will be more,
All because of different views -that's what caused this war.

Meaningless Murder?

As the rain pours down so do the tears,
It has caused so much suffering, so many fears.
Children run in the streets, trying to find their way home,
The village is now unrecognizable and they're all alone.
Mothers search for their children, not knowing of their fate,
They're wondering if they're still alive or if it's too late.
Buildings collapse around people, falling on passers by,
Many have given up, they don't care if they die.
No one can escape from the screams and the pain,
The fights are pointless, there is nothing to gain.
So many lives lost, it's not over there will be more,
All because of different views -that's what caused this war.

Well expressed, on a subject that is, unfortunately becomming an everyday occurence.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
