Taste Of War
#WritcoPoemPrompt108
Just as the rain started to fall,
Forces of good and evil instantly clashed,
In circles and in twirls that darkens all,
Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed,

Turmoil from both sides
Went up to cut the flesh.
Just as the sun arose,
Bloody view was visible instant,

Judgement of life and death,
Was measured in numbers,
Some swinging between heavens and hell,
Some waiting in the list of aftermath.

Closure of eyes spread the cries
Agonizing, hurting and filled with despair,
This is the taste of War,
Carry emptiness in the stillness of air,

Unpleasant environment was pleasure to some,
The side that held the victory
Celebration unfurled, turning night into day,
With firecrackers covering the entire sky.

Patriotism was displayed on everyone's face.
Ready to serve the country was on shore,
Few tired faces among themselves,
Wanting to get some peace and quiet night alone,

Scarcely anyone was ready to fight,
Cause the number was less on the defeated side,
A couple of them were courageous still,
However, they lost the already lost fight.
