Battlefield

Lightning screams

Across the sky.

Thunder roars.

The Angels cry.

The Gods enraged

At our hate

Raise our Demons,

To seal our Fate.

 

The sky, is grey.

The ground ****** red.

The crosses clutched.

Our kin long dead.

 

Cause unknown

Excuses made.

The life of the wounded

Slowly fades.

 

A single tear upon the ground

I have shed,

Next to where I see my friend,

Lying dead.

Although it's sad,

This is war.

The irony is; Living

That's what we are dying for.

 

B.P.
