We all need one another.  

So why do we always push each other?  

One thinks the other is wrong, looks down on those who don’t belong  

Yet who is One to say that he’s in the right, when two, three and four see it in another light?  One believes he’s superior to those who are less fortunate, unprepared, and lost.  

 Their lives filled with significant lies; ones fed to them by the government on which they’ve relied.   

They’ve held on to what they’ve been told, what they thought was real.  

War broke out, and they lost their own breed.  

Believing this facade was set by them, not knowing that it was all set by those.  

Those, whom they trusted with their well-being and souls.  

Brother against brother, and what for?  

All comes down to one misconception, maybe greed, but who would know when communication is no longer sought.   

And the ones we loved have died while they fought.
