‘War’ by David I
War, a deadly disease where brother to brother fight against each other.
War, when people die for a useless show of power.
War, a bewildering experience where you must participate for your country.
War, a traumatising scar that lives with you as you remain in solitude.
War, where you see your fellow companions perish right in front of your eyes.
War, something in our generations that will not stop till blood has shed and will remain with us for time to come.
War, the smell of death in the air as soldiers leave this world with grief, hatred, regret and dedication for the fallen.
War, with great prizes if you stay alive and death if you don’t.
But your suffering is not in vain because you will always be remembered.
