The Bird Cage

The dove flew freely once
Above nations who were at peace

Now all the peace is drained
Leaving nations
To enlist men into any
To have armoury ready

To have a thousand lives prepare
For a thousand more lost

And now the bird stays
Watching from its cage
Yearning for what seems

Once possible
Now turned into ashes

The dove could only call
For a chance
To soar in the sky
Over the nations

Who were once happy
