war is the pronunciation of death
it starts with happiness
but, ends with only one breath
so, why wouldn't we just be friends ?
way before those comments
way before we started those pretends
the soldiers who lost their families
or even became insanity
the lives of many shredded
i don't think they knew where they were headed
but, now that they've fought their lives for us
all that we know
is that there would be no more fuss
it starts with happiness

Thanks for sharing your poem Hannah. I like the use of rhetorical question for effect. "why wouldn't we just be friends?"
ReplyDeleteWhere you say "or even became insanity" could we adjust to something about developing insanity, or feeling insanity?
