A Poetic Exploration of the Tragedy of War

It starts with a spark, a flame ignites,

A battle cry echoes through the night,

Brothers and sisters pick up their swords,

Marching off to face their Lord.

The earth shakes with the sound of war,

Innocent lives shattered, forevermore,

Homes and families torn apart,

Leaving only broken hearts.

The skies darken, smoke fills the air,

A world of pain, a world of care,

The smell of death and destruction,

A bleak reminder of man's corruption.

War brings only suffering and pain,

Leaving wounds that never wane,

It's time to end this endless strife,

And bring back peace to human life.
