bodies burning
no empathy
if it were your brother
the tears would flow
if it were your home
everyone would know
if it were your city
the defense would grow
but unknown
so far away
bodies burning
no empathy
no thought
no feelings
no voice
no care
sweep it quickly
under the carpet
out the door
no more
dont want conflict
dont want war
its not my family
its a distant shore
"those people"
have been fighting forever
"those people"
no empathy
no love
no understanding
religious symbols
nothing behind them
a tag
like cattle wear
not knowing why
and unaware
deeper
still deeper
is the soul
meant to soar
but the chains
get in the way
we must then
ignore
the weight of this world
keeps us tied
no empathy
at least you tried
