Love and War

I long for the warmth of your embrace

As I trudge through this game of endless maze

The silence around me is uninterrupted

Only the gun shots which are corrupted

Silence as I wipe away my tears

Silence as I'm engulfed in fear

Silence as I watch them kill

Silence as I stand perfectly still

A peaceful life with you I dream

Away from all the bloody screams

Dead bodies lying on the floor

"Murder" as I near my front door

Silence as I wipe away my tears

Silence as I'm engulfed in fear

Silence as I watch them kill

Silence as I stand perfectly still
