Letter to the Betrayed
To the East, From the West
I hope you know I tried my best.
To take up sword to fight your foes
And take up shield to guard from woes.
As a human, I hope you see
My hopes and dreams were cast to sea
Like you too, I've been betrayed
And wonder why I even stayed.
I was misguided, my empathy subsided
When I found the world divided.
The scars you bear, the fault is mine
I pass the torch to next in line.
Rekindle the hope, and perhaps with time
Together we can correct this fault of mine.

(Any money somehow gained on this I want given to the proper channels in war torn countries in the middle East we caused the ruination of so they can hope to rebuild. I don't want a dime.)
