Excellence Award in the 'Dream Big 2013' competition

War is with in all of us
A parasite we make causing loss

By all the talk of peace and unity
We often forget about the reality

Time and time again we prove it so
Killing millions in doing so

Kings, Queens, leaders and generals
How often they forget the morals

At sea of sand and in the barren winter land
Righteous souls perished with no one to depend

As the bald headed eagle swoops from the air
deploying nothing except for despair

Coffins of metal that fall from the skies
Setting ablaze the innocents and the lies

We try to hide the war with in humanity
In the end noting remains, not even our sanity
