The truth about Wars

Some wars are fought for honour,
and some for wealth and greed.
But the guilt that man does carry,
will make his heart bleed.

Some hearts are full of hatred, 
and some just seek revenge, 
but the ones blood related, 
have vowed to avenge.

Some wars are fought for saints,
and some for a one and zeros.
if killed,
you are a martyr, 
if not, 
you are a hero.

Wars do bring destruction,
and shatter people’s lives.
In blood the price is paid,
For just a pack of lies.
