Skeletons

Skeletons,

all i see around me is death

amongst the laughting and the speaking

in me there's complete silence

an emtiness that runs

through the bottom of my soul

looking all about me

all i see is

destruction, chaos

someone's got to die

when freedom is in jeoperdy

where is the expendible force

that protects the hearts if

people who take life for granted?

The darkness envelopes

numb unfeeling sick and thinking:

"What exactly

Have i done with my life?

Have i given it to a

People who know not of its value?"

Saving a nation

Vicarious people watch

on TV

But they will NEVER

hear the sounds of soldiers screaming

...but i will.

Skeletons.

All i see around me is death.

Blood shed is the lulluby, playing in my head

adn it's astounding how things

really turn out

because of liars meeting quotas

Oh the tears when the truth screams out.

tumbling down like an avalanche

just another stain on someone's boots

just another flicker in someone's thoughts.

Simply another one lost.
