War
Measures, counter measures, wounds and scars
Systematic, problematic, ordnance of war
Weaponry, battlefields, dropping of bomb
Cannon balling, name calling, will victory ever come?
Knives to the back, bullets to the head
Bayonets to the side, stabbing until dead
Underwater, overwater, flyby attacks
Night vision goggles helping to track.
Walking and stalking, following to see
Where the opposition goes to and where he might be
Interrogation, torture, tears of grief and pain
Marching mile upon the mile crying in the rain.
Wounded deep but not too deep
To go to God above
The war that started the day we met
On the battlefield of love.
