Come By the Sword, Die By the Sword

History has witnessed the wars and peace
Fights with all bravery given nothing but bleed
Anger of mankind with mankind for material
Way to chaos and incomplete families
Come by the sword, die by the sword
The only motto not to give up
Live with all valor, let die those who don’t…

Broken legs, smashed faces, disillusion children
Present is disheveled, future is tear laden
We are the kings, tyrants, brave souls
The self esteem and over claimed attitude
Ruined so many and will go on
Come by the sword, die by the sword
History keeps repeating of one and all

Wars of the world, countries disturbed
Paying the reminisce till today and ever
What for? What for? Not remained to answer
Fights of words are no deeper hurt
Life is a chess board to play
Will fight till the other gives way
Come by the sword, die by the sword

Epics are many we read time on time
Questions are deep not to sublime
For the loss world has earned, moved
Come by the sword, die by the sword
Peace to none, all fail in continuing agony…
