War By Me

War

Guns, explosion, bombs, terrorising innocent people. Soldiers with hatred against other armies.

The destruction, pain, total annihilation.
The violence and destruction from the armies, hundreds of them in the armies killing they’re enemies.

The battlefield filled with red mist.
Tanks roaming the giant nuke filled land.
Death for hundreds of soldiers.
Dead bodies lay all over the battlefield.
With the enemies trenches not far away.
Medals for all the army men.

Honour, pain.

Why is there war?
