We did it
To save the
Blood of
Our own.

The bomb
That killed
Thousands of
People we didn't know.

Nothing is left
Of two cities
Once alive.
Nothing.

The cries of
Their sufferings
Reaches our ears
The mourns.

The ones who
Survived
Are pained
With sickness.

Sickness of
Mind
And of
Body.

We are the
Villains
The murders
In their eyes.

We are justified,
Good
And full of right
In the eyes of our own.

Is there really
A evil or good?
Does it
Even matter?

There's no difference
In the blood
On our
Hands.

It's no difference
In the blood
Of our
World.

When you've
Killed
There's nothing
To erase that blood.

Why you kill,
That doesn't matter.
The person you've
Killed had family.

Mothers, fathers
Brothers, sisters
A wife and
Children to call his own.

Family
That mourn for
His death.
If they still were living.

It matters not
That you did
It to save your own life,
That does not make you good.

It doesn't matter
That they've also
Killed,
That does not make them evil.

Good or bad.
Is an unsettled
Argument
Between the eyes you see through.
For those of you who couldn't tell, this is a poem I wrote about the difference of views in the drop of the atom bomb. I'm sorry if you disagree with me, I just personally don't think anybody was right or wrong.

Written for :iconfictionfridays:'s Prompt #6: Different views in the world.

This is great! I love the last part "Good or bad. Is an unsettled Argument Between the eyes you see through." Very true :nod:
