Fallen Children

Pushed and pulled, shoved all over,

Training for the end of their lives,

Never to see loved ones forever,

Kids barely old enough for the times,



Hardships lifted from their souls,

Leaving for the new world,

Youth laying dead in their fouls,

Bravery and valor in their core,



Dying on foreign land for no reason,

Freedom for others, so we are told,

Lead on Mr. President, kill for treason,

One day you life will fold,



Fighting for oil that's all you want,

Killing innocents of our young,

Every baby picked to die for your war,

This horrible mistake for which you stand for.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

To the soldiers who have died in this meaningless war. The soldiers no older than I am.
