Armies invading,
Enemies charging,
The War has begun.
Soldiers’ shooting,
Engine’s firing,
and the War continues.
Citizens dying,
Refugees fleeing,
Still the war goes on.
Tyrants hiding,
Allies finding,
The War is finishing up.
Mourners’ wailing,
Country failing,
The War has finally ended.
All this gore,
What was it for?
… peace
