The battle is finished

My spirit is diminished

We thought we had won

We thought it was done

But little did we know

The war would soon grow

It spread across the nation

Causing much complication

A quick infiltration

To overthrow a dictation

We saw death and blood

In a red river flood

There was pain and despair

But at the time no one cared

Anwersing to George W. Bush

A man who can only push

We searched for weapons of mass destruction

But found less than nothing

Stuck in this desert abyss

Our families we miss

Searching our broken tortured souls

For the will to accomplish a goal

Though the war will go on

I just wish we were gone

Leaving without a trace

And forgetting this place

Going back home

Where my happiness has grown

And returning to you

So you won't feel so blue





Dedicated to my brother may he return home safely
