Guarded Fortress : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : Shelly Wiseberg


Battles fought

choose your weapons

for war

word of action

peace or reaction.

When will this stop

in feeling safe

from other's hatred and racism.

The loss of life too many to count.

Peace agreements broken

empty promises of a better tomorrow.

The terror or terrorism and doubt.

Many threats and suicide bombers

taking innocent people down

want to die just do it yourself

no points are being made

except the pointless.

Guarded fortress protect yourself

in fighting for what you believe in

with all your battle scars

forgotten tomorrows

in collecting  your sorrows.
