War of Love

by Natalie84   Jun 25, 2008


You came
Created war
Then ran for the door
Leaving broken battlegrounds
Completely destroyed
Tears of pain
Quickly deployed
Stinging my face
And stealing warrior's joy
A sinful decoy injected hope
Now bullets of hate
Trouble a soldiers heart
Spears of deceit
Confounded this correlation
Upon tattered soil
I realize defeat
Left to rifle through the debris
To find the pieces of me
I got lost in combat
Forgot what I was fighting for
Now I realize, you weren't even worth the war
Pellets of falsity struck
Breaking through the flesh of strength
I brought my guns to war
Yet, I lost in the struggle
Overpowered by the devil
A frozen heart conquered
Left unaided
For the buzzards to finish off
After the hostilities
I'm still standing on the front line
In the heat of the night
Vulnerable to the leeches who lurk
Susceptible to new lies
And savior lit fireworks
Prone to a new kiss of hope
With a hook line and rope to one more
Yet another worthless army, declaring war
