Blood Spilled

I was born in a life unlike yours; We have struggled in all the years. We knocked endlessly but all the doors Have been closed 'coz of the numerous wars. I could never forget all the cries, Tears streaming from everyone's eyes As their loved one dies; One by one came in their demise. It was too painful to see As everyone attempted to flee. Amidst the battle to be free, You can hear sickening cries of plea. Blood from the dead spilled on the ground. In endless anger we all drowned. Our minds are nothing more if not unsound After the bloody battle, silence was profound. Now the blinding war has ended Was this how what we all intended? All hopes now had been expended Lives taken and ruined how can be amended?
