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
