My Children

As I consider how misery has been 
Before tip of this peace and happiness, 
Also that everlasting fight I declared of 
you, which has brought me this far. 
Tattooed in me; yet powerful 
but magnetic to war.

I now know no more than to: 
Push until the end of time, 
Gain sense of winning in crime 
As I am guilty of you my prime! 
Shall they judge thou lost in pride, 
When good is nolonger their rightful 
ride? 

So long truth is to search & die for 
Freedom is to reach & fly for.
