[size=2][font="Times New Roman"]
War infringes on humanity

Our rights, our freedoms, our sanity

War makes you loose all hope

It assaults, and throws you against the rope

The lethargic beast, so cunning

It's horrific hardly stunning

Your life sodden with grief

It's vileness hardly brief

It is the enemy at every corner

A shroud of your former

Distraught at your action

Desperate for reprimand

Desperate for a friend, a companion, a faction

Though none are on hand

Visions of horror, recounts of torture

Your conscious will avenge

Your punishment is to live with the stench

It's sour breath whispering

You’re oblivious to its apathy

Oblivious to the deathly howling

Of your fellow men

Their families weeping in agony

The aftermath distorts your vision

You look around in need of revision

The traces of your committed abuse, your ignominy

Once you stood so mighty in battle, now you below a pygmy

The scars will become your family

unrelenting, never leaving

The stars will haunt your breathing

You recluse against the ropes
Rest and Relinquish yourself against the Ropes
