The Hidden Battlefields : Narrative Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

Some wars have been fought on a stony battlefield

Some wars never finish with scars that can't be healed . 

Hidden chemicals are buried under the skin

are products of a war that none of us can win .

Some times we go forward and other times rewind

To a place where of conflict where all is so unkind .     

Missiles don't fall in love and people push and shove .

Web sites can tell people what a bomb is made of .


If you hear the thunder you can feel your heart pound.


maybe you're one  of those who fought on stony ground.


If the wounds within us could stop the ache we feel , then we could be free from the hidden battlefield .
