[hometext] => The second to last paragraph is about the beheading incident. The rest of the paragraphs are about stories that I have heard.
[bodytext] => As an angels acid tear runs down the earth Killings in the war for what America is worth Bloodstains will only seek through the soil that’s red As a soldier screaming is left to be dead No real reason for people pleading to live No real reason to take when you can always give Fear overcomes a soldiers dying eyes As he reaches out to touch the sky Holding his friends hand sayin, "I don’t wanna die" Starts to loose grip and the whole world seems to cry Thinking to himself why the ?? is this my life?! Knowing what he has to tell the mans two sons and wife Sadness comes when all the plants begin to sprout Looking at red where the soldiers took their rout He wasn’t left to live but he was left to be at doubt And all happiness once had will only slip into a drought This ?? is never gonna be what life is all about Because the way back in will never be the way back out As if it was at innocence only his right to bleed Over a greedy feeling that felt the need to concede Crying and screaming until the blood makes him choke ******************** laughing like it’s some joke Video taped for his wife, daughter, and sons to see Murder not on the third, second, but the first degree The clouds in the air will begin to only split Shining on the lifeless is when the pain will hit Teardrop drops towards the bottomless abyss Stiff as a stone his emotions are nothing near bliss And for those of you who only choose to ignore Realize now that these are only the realities of war [comments] => 2 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 57 [informant] => coaster [notes] => (Edited by Mod_11 for strong language) [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => war )
