WAR

poem by: Marnie Cavazzi
Written on Apr 14, 2015

There's a black cloud outside my window. 
Another in my heart. 
Can't see light anymore 
Darkness tearing me apart 
Wondering who the hell my friends are 
Is there anyone even there 
Can you feel the pain I'm screaming 
Angels get me out of here 
Blood on my hands 
Can I wash it away 
Is it etched in my memory 
Another time another place 
They say the wheels are turning 
Will they turn for me 
Can I live this life unaided 
Or will it swallow me 
Bare my soul 
Pray for redemption 
Give me peace 
Make my life an exception 
Angel beside me 
Can't breathe anymore 
Pick me up I'm falling 
Can't fight at all 
Face has lost all expression 
Tell my family goodbye 
Did it for my country 
Just don't know the reason why
