What is the reason for war?
The Blood shed, the tears, misery, suffering and agony. Hell or war, politics, sabotage and anarchy, fighters.
Slaughtered like lambs, bodies thrown around. Mates laying down as their lives flashed before them.
Guns fired rapidly as bodies flied slaughtered, a blood and body wasteland.
Stains in the veterans who fought. No winner No loser, only death and memories of loved ones.
