War Is Fear

War is fear of death for all who fight.
It's every colour of your flag for which you serve.
War scars the land brown, black and red for the destruction and death that was dealt.
War is like a raging fire destroying all in its path.
It is like a flood you can't escape.
War is in our minds and in our hearts as the fallen rot in a peace of dirt.
Is it worth the price of blood?
