The War
The chill creeps through my bones
 The crinkle and crackle of the running leaves
 Fly past me
 There all that’s left
 With the aroma of fuel in my nostrils
 And pavement by my feet
 You feel the remnants of this war
 
 The prisoners of this war
 Tower above us with their branches swaying
 And their leaves retreating
 Yes there there
 The war is here
 
 The ground has risen
 Stone and sand
 Metal and steel
 Rise from there buried tombs
 To come and join the fight
 To conquer the ones above
 The dead rise to conquer the life
 
 They attack the air
 Filling it
 Poisoning the lung of their opponents
 And the ones they work for
 
 Yes my lungs are saturated with their fumes
 Clinging to the walls of my lungs
 Gripping them in a head lock
 
 We will loss
 Don’t you see
 We called for help
 The will soon flee
 To run and hide
 Back to their tombs
 To leave us with this mess
 So we will fail this test
 We called for war
 And we got it
 We won
 But 
 is it worth it
