ALL WE HAVE LEFT

ALL WE HAVE LEFT

As war, in its many invocations
Rides out again across the skies
Blades cut through the innocent
It is to all mankind’s detriment
Maybe it’s hope that never dies
Despite all of the perturbations

As if it never needed evolution
Some wars have become hidden
With instances of cyber attacks
All of us must watch our backs
Believing it’s all come unbidden
We must be part of the solution

Sensing the pain of being bereft
To stand alone in a nuclear cloud
With all around having now gone
It leaves us much to think upon
Cry for peace, and shout it loud
Before voices are all we have left
