Bloodied Souls

Conflicts and troubles
Continents and tribes
Tomorrows left reft
Children, their future
In wanton describe ~~~~~

Maiming to kill
Shooting to thrill
Crimson will spill
Genocidal ~~~~

Soldiers they
Boys and girls
In whose world ~~~

These young
Bloodied ~~

Souls ~

Let's hope so Olive, but sadly, Wars will never recede, as long as there's one from each side who detests each other. I wrote a poem called 'Two Humans Left' if you'd be so kind to let me know your thoughts, James :) x
