Its Not Right

Its Not Right

It’s not right

nothing is the way it used to be.

They say freedom is not free,

but is death

for death

a real liberty.

The insanity ,

of humanity

lies with in Guns and bombs

killing fathers and sons.

Leaving mothers and wives,

with shattered lives.

Destruction and chaos,

illustrating a world lost.

While politicians lie,

so many men die

in the hands of combat,

or never comeback.

Or if they do,

they are someone new.

Although they are forever changed,

people who are not grateful look at them strange.

So is freedom not free?

Not to me,

I guess that is sad to be true,

but in context they lie to you.

Yet if a man is to die for his country,

it is seen as a act of valor.

But when war is fought over dollars

is that right,

not in my eyesight.

And not at the blood spilled scenes at hindsight,

                                                                    But to have peace,            

without blood shed

Is right.

But blood for blood,

is a soldier’s plight,

still to me its not right.
