Bodies
You walk , I see bodies, nothing but bones
The people look, you see that they lost their loved ones, not by choice
People crying
Remembering the war
The army killing people for enjoyment and laughs
Remembering what it was like to have a grandpa or uncle to hold you and laugh
The bodies lay cold in the ground, no one to warm them
No food or bed like the people that killed them
You look at them, they look so cold, tired, and hungry
You think of all the babies that got killed, but why them?
They wanted to have a happy life
No one to be happy with
Their deaths were a tragedy that wasn't meant to be
People killed and people killing
Still bodies lay on the ground
Not a care or tear in the world from you
There is nothing you can do
