    I was sorry to read this piece simply because it is depressingly true in every regard.
    Aside from that, it is well written indeed.

    All the best,

    Ben

      Thank you, Ben. It is ironic really to say we hate war and yet we create it.

    War is not guns and bombs
    War is you and so is me
    War is indifference and ignorance
    An inside mutiny.

    ^^This sums up the various facets of war that you presented throughout the piece.

    Well written.

    Quite relative in great a way. Emotion is the war within _fuelled by IGNORANCE & INDIFFERENCE. Superbly crafted thought, well done!

    I am so sorry this is your world these days. No one should have to live in this and unfortunately it's far too commonplace. Well done on a very insiteful write.

    A very deep poem and what you beautifully explain in it is all too true. I'm Syrian myself, but was lucky to be born in Australia. My mother's family are all there though and their government is also killing its own people. There's family and friends there that we haven't been able to contact for too long now. May peace find you and your people soon and never leave you.

    "War is indifference and ignorance". Sadly! Many a government remain indifferent to their people's pain and it is maddening - literally! All we can do is hope, for the few of us who still can.

    An absolutely incredible piece. I love the language in this, the sense of all-encompassing sorrow. It was beautifully poetic, and profoundly wise. It was a real treat to read. Had an essence of Bob Dylan and John Lennon, actually. It had the atmosphere of a well known poem written decades ago.

    I think, if this is the quality of work you will continue to produce, then we - the readers of your work - will be exceedingly lucky.
