Contribution
They walk in confusion
Or maybe its bliss
There are solutions
But some don't get this
Taking for granted
Life's daily show
From birth the seed was planted
But i guess they don't know
They turn away
Its like closing a book
All peace of mind strays
All contributions over looked
As they walk facing there feet
A place remains the outcast
One by one covered with sheets
Population diminishing fast
As the bullets shoot through the night
Loved ones await each call
Govern to fight
As each one falls
Educated to become the master
They study in the passing days
Staying captains of world disaster
Until the last one lays
Poppies are laid at the final resting place
A picture of a loved one proudly placed
Each one their death is their contribution
For this world in disaster with no resolution
