Ode to those caught up in conflict
*Cross2*

Bullets fly, people die,
War has come your way
Pick a side, allegiance abide
Will you live or die today?

Anxious partners, Fretful Mums,
And every son and daughter
Pray for peace , but hear the guns
As combatants engage in slaughter

Crowds protest, battle infests,
Continuum wished the least
Eternal rests, Reaper guests,
A reward for those deceased

Blood spilled, Surrender willed,
Chaos merged with fear
Soldiers killed, Graveyards filled
With those you love so dear
