A War Worth Losing
November 5, 2012
Death closes in around the darkness
Reaching out to grab the last innocence
Bright flickers of hope come to an end
Emotions flee and begin to descend
Death threatens to grasp fragile souls
Despair remains in dominant control
Dreadful screams echo through the silence
Leaving sadness in its absence
Death flashes into fearful eyes
Tears fall from daunted cries
Pain reaches out to aghast corpses
Life itself has lost all defences
