The Pledge!

The pledge that was made to this young man

filled him with a passion

thinking he would be fighting for his beliefs

against the true enemy

this was how it was sold to this genuine being

but from himself was fleeing!

 

Like so many had been drawn to follow religion

but as too often is the case

words twisted and created making it like a calling

brought together as a family

the promise of a better way of life in unity

in one large community!

 

Once drawn in realized life meant much more

it was a hollow dream

finding compassion and love was not the aim

unable to escape the horrors

death came far to soon the allusion shattered

his body torn and battered!

 

The relatives shocked with no remains to mourn

their faith apart torn!
