Fallen Angels

Children of God but like Lucifer fallen angels too Harboring both love and hate with everything we go through Talk of world peace that seizes to exist Giving into temptations too good to resist Inner peace ridden off and quickly dismissed Opportunities to be kind are too often missed Soldiers sent away to foreign lands For the love of their country they proudly take a stand I often wonder what we are truly fighting for Can peace really be obtained by so much bloodshed and war Freedom surely comes at a price furthest from free Ask families of fallen soldiers how it came to be Small slices of heaven on earth among a living hell Will you walk into the light or reside where darkness dwells Both reside within and surround us each and every day A battle of balancing good and evil gets harder as further from faith we stray We are all human and the struggle is real, yet we are all capable of choosing love each day In the meantime for world peace I'll continue to pray
