A short poem.( image courtesy of google)

I hear the wind, howling in despair,
I feel the bite, of the cold night air.
I inhale the scent of a life long past.
As I trudge through a battlefield of the lost.
I gaze upon my brethren, looking into thier eyes.
I question myself, who hurts more, who lives, or who dies?
I walk on, through this patch of scorched sand,
for I have a task, which I owe this land.
I kneel, bathed in moonlit grace.
I pray, my fingers interlace.
I implore the lord, to grant me closure.
For I have had enough of this gruesome exposure.
And as I peer, through cracked lids,
At the lost, strewn like a flowers aphids.
I hear a voice, thundering above,
I am reminded of peace, the wreath, the dove.
My heart is spared, for the moment to pass,
But i would have answers, for this slaughter en mass.
My mind feels light, but my heart lays low.
At these blades of grass, who were seen fit to mow.
I cast of the lords offering, in guilt and shame,
I wish no insult, to the creators name.
But his offering, is in cruely irony.
And he shall not find a gratefull host in me.
If for divine intervention, there is a time,
why had it not acted, to avert this haenous crime.
Why had you not acted, for the betterment of all,
instead of helping one, watching the others fall.
No, I will not accept you gift.
With a thank you, but no thank you, through the carnage I sift.
I march through the strewn bodies, tears in my eyes,
A man without a lord, without hope. or so he doth surmise.
