a small poem i wrote based on my spotify shuffle

War (Inspired by Edwin Starr’s “War”)

War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing

War tears families apart Leaves scars on hearts Soldiers march, guns ablaze In the haze of battle, lives erased

War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing

Children cry, mothers weep As nations clash, secrets keep Flags unfurl, blood-stained ground Echoes of pain, lost and found

War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing

Let peace prevail, hearts unite In the fight for love’s pure light For war breeds sorrow, hate, and strife But love can heal and bring new life
