War

I was told that war is the answer
and I believe this to be true,
more true than the world outside
and the life we just pass through.

This war is not external
but as internal as a clock,
clicking gears and turning time
on these feeling your unable to block.

With the constant pulling ties
and the tearing of our hearts,
I see that war does have a truth
and a way of mending broken parts.

So i fear nothing of the dark
and love nothing of the light
because at the end of the day
all there is, is the will to fight
