Bleeding Hearts and Liberation

By Pixie.

As if there aren’t enough people lying today,

To have more when you turn on the TV,

They’re telling us we’re doing great- pain will go away,

If only they’d open their eyes to see,

That this war was the wrong choice,

We could have stayed so much more peaceful,

But all it was is politics-little fighting boys,

Their vision is clouded by cotton wool,

There’s nothing really much to say,

It’s done now the choice damning,

Hopefully peace will find its way,

Through all of this painful planning,

To liberate the people,

The eternal lie of the rich,

Hanging from the church steeple,

Our own hearts bleeding through each stitch.
