Living life in this darkness of war...
No room to cry or let our hearts soar...
We can't complain of what we don't have...
Can't act like the little things make us sad...
All we can do is try to find the light...
Find the reason and encouragement to fight...
A clear vision to explain this hatred...
There's no end to those we thought were sacred...
Life as we know it will always be...
Controlled by soldiers...like you and me.

I like the subtle analogy between the soldiers we are in the battle that is life and real battle...interesting way to depict the big picture...

Be it in the truest form, or a desperate lack thereof, fail not to understand that the inspiration is love.

This was interesting...  Not sure that I completely understand it or agree with it, but it was still good.  Thanks for posting.

If someboy laughs at me, does that make me funny or just plain stupid?
