 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

What Is The Point?


Can anyone tell me why it is…?
That stupid people want a war!
What is the reason, does anyone know?
Does anyone know what it's for?

What is the point, what's the reasoning?
Why are the people sent to defend…?
What are they even defending?
And will anything help make amends?

This is so stupid and a waste of time,
Fear struck into the hears of many,
And all for ‘peace' I hear it said,
The foolish men and ‘politics' there are many!!!

Why the hell do they let it happen?
What the hell is it for…do we know?
It seems so wrong, all the fighting,
And for what, is it just for show?

Power, is that what it is?
People feeling in charge and in control,
Well to me it's utterly senseless…
Unless peace is the ultimate goal!

But is it, is it really that reason?
Is that what it's all about?
Because to be perfectly honest,
I'm very much in doubt!
