If you can read my mind

If you don’t need rewind

If we freed what we bind

If we lead to what we find

If we don’t remove the men of greed

Then we won’t prove when we bleed

Now what to do when you’ve been freed

How do you improve what you need

Ask me what is wrong with me tonight

Task me with a strong pen to write

If all you men can give all of your might

All women can live without more fright

Every now and then I’ll try to replace

Somehow when we smile at every face

Celebrations in time and space

Tell the nations it’s time to race

At the end they will all be waiting

That defend the call you are elevating

But my friend all that you are creating

So why defend all this devastating

For all the bombs you drop today

For all the moms who stop to pray

And God will send them a belief

And God will end them of grief

Can God still send him another breath

Can God still defend another death

Someone chose who will attack

No one knows when he’ll be back

Lord just tell me who can I ask

Lord must hell be who planned my task

The other night I just fired off my gun

My mother might just cry over this one

Hear me mom what they still ploy

Carry a bomb but they kill a boy

I ponder why they pray under a dome

I wonder why we may plunder their home

On the phone a voice makes the order

Our only choice is to take the border

Can I cope with all they demand

Than I hope you all understand

If we die will their lands be free from

If we tie the hands of greed some

Try to reach out for another to shake

Try to teach about another mistake

What is lost in all of this pain

What’s the cost for all of this gain

If where we are we don’t belong

If where you are won’t be long

If this letter is by chance all you receive

If I never get a chance to leave

If for every frown I send some love

If you’re ever down I descend from above

If there is nothing right with this war

If you’re one thing I’m fighting for

Then something I hope you never forget

And one thing I cope with is never regret

Like all the rest I thought it wouldn’t be long

Even if their best fought it couldn’t be strong

I have waited for the warlords to end

I’ve created more words to send

With my blood and sweat I defend my home

If I could I’d let all tears end with this poem
