Men on the Battlefield

The men on the battlefield lie
The widows at the sideline cry
For them, the truth is the only thing in the world that hurts
It pains their miles of smiles
To see the darkness fold around corpses of love
The gunshots no longer will be heard over just masculine faces
Now women fill up their empty spaces with talk of this equality
Tis a sad life when more men and women
Must continue to die for a land that is free
We fight for what?
Perhaps we fight for that spark of hope in all humans
That light that whispers the lie where one day we’ll find peace
