Lost

By Casey

 

I stumbled across the darkened street

Hot asphalt burning my injured feet

The moon glistens in the night sky

And I feel that I should just die

 

What have I got to live for?

In a land never to be free from war

There is no one left to go on with me

So perhaps I should just let it all be

 

I hide while those soldiers patrol the land

In a building where children were banned

Only now it is a destroyed and empty shell

My country has been turned into a living hell

 

There is no reason for these men to be here

The don't care for us, never shedding a tear

We are the wounded owners of this city

Never going to receive anyone's pity

 

Apparently we are the bad ones in this fight

The people who caused all the spite

Now they are angrily striking back at us

While putting up an enormous fuss

 

I thought that I was safe in my warm home

All the love and affection that I was shown

We had earned all that we possessed

And now it's all gone, I must confess
