footprints in the earth.....

War

The war I seek
Multiplies my foes
To turn the other cheek
Lies on justice's throes

Armed with my conscience
I fight this roaring tide
Measure by measure recompense
I do not run or hide

No true value without enemies
A name is burned in strife
No peace without tale of life.

The handshake is only sincere,
When pure is the true intention,
Otherwise I remain here
In restless confrontation.
