Ways of War
By Laura
August 10, 2015
The battle's in our bleeding hearts
They tell us what to do
The lies rip us apart
The truth that's never true
I know you want to sleep
Honestly, so do I
In every monster that we keep
Are endless ways we seem to die
One day our crimson hearts will fade to grey
And we will find the in-between
Maybe we'll find the love today
To live through all the pain we've seen
It's colder now than ever before
A winter comes this summer night
In shivering, we ask for more
Our broken bodies set to fight
We send a light from distant shores
Our tortured souls with more in store
This darkness, brighter than before
To end our life-long ways of war
Its just a thought, a fleeting hope
That we will see tomorrow's end
No promises, through scars we cope
Just an honest smile; a scene of you and me, my friend
