A brief description of war.

War


War is death.
War is desolation.
To remember is agony.

War is to see unbearable bloodshed.
War is to see a windblown death drift over the land.
To remember is to scream skyward with no reply.

War is to see wandering souls without arms or legs.
War is to see children who are utterly homeless.
To remember is to sink to the farthest depths of grief.

War is to feel a tear roll down a face.
War is to feel pain where there was none before.
To remember is to feel a sadness beyond life.

War speaks without listening.
War is blind to all peaceful thought.
To remember war is to remember emptiness.
