Notes About The Poem

Number Four: Wars and Battles

The outskirts of ruin, children of war,
Pass by upheavals, turmoils, turbulence,
Impacted scenes that tore, they must endure,
Safe from acts of war that was merciless,
Behind smiles and charms, home, away from war,
Now comes the battles, that adds to their scar.
