I posted this at poetry.com as well, and it turned to be a success.
And the World Keeps Spinning...


A young man,
heads to war, filled with hope and pride.
He later returns,
missing his hope,
along with his whole left side.
His family turns the other way,
his friends do exactly the same,
he sits in a corner to this day,
and the world just keeps on spinning...
Around the world,
Children are thinning,
Thousands are killed, and the world keeps on spinning
Bullets fly,
Towns Burn,
People die,
Yet the world continues to turn.
Blood is cried, tears are bled,
the world keeps spinning, fear continues to spread.
Why does he think, what he's doing is right?
