Poem! I wrote this today. Been a long time.
And the war just never stops.

Inspired by Handlebars by Flobots.
And through all the bloodshed tears.
Through all the beating years.
We've never stopped.
The war could never been dropped.
But our loves and young ones unite.
Even though they know it can all end tonight.
We watch them walk.
We watch the clock.
Just a matter of time before we hear a ring.
Gathering for a funeral in the spring.
We say our prays.
And for a better day we praise.
And for a couple more years.
The result of the war bring us cheers.
But that only lasts for a while.
Because once again the war is beyond miles.
And we do it all over again.
Soldiers go but memories remain.
