[hometext] => I, along with most of my family, and friends, have served in the armed forces. This is a topic that eats me alive..
[bodytext] => In this ever changing world of fear Someone must pay the cost For another political error Or yet another young life lost But you or I can't stand our ground Or find our peace of mind Whether we want to believe it or not We are running out of time There is famine and disaster Blood, and sweat, and tears But this hasn't happened recently It's been going on for years The violence seems to escalate With every passing day As someone else gets shot at Or a murderers put away There are little tiny children Defenceless in the street Strung between temptation And all the worlds beliefs But you or I can't do much We are just two helpless souls Strung between the reality of Our personal dreams and goals We could yell and scream and rampage Then maybe for a day The world will stop and listen To what we have to say But once our minds have spoken And we've done the best we can Someone will soon disagree They just don't give a damn I hear everybody asking How can I be so scared The future still holds so much But no-body REALLY cared With all the war and violence Going on in the world today Can I really call myself human To react any other way.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
