War

Can you see what you have done to our daughters and sons They went away to fight in your war Some returned home displaying behavioral problems; traumatized and lost Can you see what you have done to our daughters and sons Others returned home with missing limbs You gave them a prosthetic leg or arm Then you say they are healed How many more wars do they have to fight before you can see the devastation and destruction, the loss of so many lives Can you see what you have done to our daughters and sons
