Home Is All I Want
The Light|Issue 51 - November 2024
Trapped in the dust, where the bombs never cease; no glory, no honour, just a longing for peace.
George O Connor
Home Is All I Want

The gunfire echoes, the screams pierce the night; I'm no hero, just scared, lost deep in the fight.

This war is a hellscape where life falls apart But all I can think of is you in my heart.

Not medals, not flags, not the pride of the brave; Just craving a world that I don't have to save.
