The Battle is Here

[Roseofthorns]

The Battle is Here...

Life is but a battle in a world of trouble
Even if you win the bitter fight
You're just living to die another night
As families lie beneath the twisted rubble

Not all battles consist of sword or gun
Most happen in public places
Where children turn up crimson faces
Because the big bad bully ruined their fun

Some kids can take the punishment
Most can cope and deal
Others fall to their knees and feel,
Pain to the greatest extent

This is a battle that can neither be lost nor won
We can only sit helplessly as our friends,
Children, and siblings suffer to no ends
Because hurting them is a bullies only fun

We try to help them, and show them we care
We dry their eyes when they well up and tear
But what can we do for them in a world so big,
Filled with pain and so many abusive pigs?

I guess we must simply watch as they grow old
Dealing with the suffering they have been dealt
Growing weaker or stronger through what they felt
Until that fateful day when the end to their story is told

Now sit here for a moment and lend me your ear
Not all is lost in this dreadfully painful fight
There is a place where we can escape the plight
And live out our days without the fear

That place is in the lives and hearts of others
Helping our friends, children, sisters and brothers
Through this perilous fight against the world
And view its dangerous plot unfurled

Though not all is solved by a loving caress
Nor can is stop the demissionary's best
Our misery is described by our happiness
Likewise our happiness defines the misery expressed.

Our world is reversed, and reversed again
It suffers so greatly by the evil hearts of men
Perhaps some day we will end the fight,
And save everyone from this dastardly plight.

Though I highly doubt it.
