my stoic eyes of pain tremble from my brain my fingers grasp my skin in horror a blast blew up a store and bomb flayed bodies tore before my eyes in pain walked through death's door I do not understand this terror they demand to bring this hell on Earth forevermore It's innocence they stab that puts bodies on a slab from evil wrought in their soul I abhor please, allow me to run home through the streets to roam and quell the fear I have once more the shock from the debris upon my face won't flee as I lay frightened in my bed to hide from war I do not want to see this anymore 9/4/17 contest Poems that paint a picture

Ughh such a horrid subject, brought to life in beautifully descriptive, yet painful words. Great poem.
