Thunder catapults across the sky
flashes of orange bomboard them all,
screams of terror rise above the madness
as they begin to flee for safety.

This was our plan, wasn't it?
to destroy the evils on earth
but looking into their innocent eyes,
I wonder,
who the real monsters are here.

Sirens whail from every direction
the towns in a state of panic
and yet we are called heroes,
even if we are sent here to kill.

The guns in my hand,
my hands trembling, I take aim
this is our mission, wasn't it?
Didn't you want us to take away it all?

Tell me where is your compassion
tell me again to fight for my country,
when all around me bodies fall to the ground
their hands placed over their hearts.

Children crying, clasping their parents hands
not able to turn their heads away
they don't know any other lifestyle
and yet, this is what you wanted, isn't it?

Peace on earth will never happen
until you, Mr. President, stop justifying murder in the name of "freedom".

Thanks so much for the comments. This poem pretty much expresses where I'm at right now in my life, politically.
