What About The Families?


What about the families
That sit and cry,
When they hear of a loved one
That just died?

Does it not matter
About the lives that are at risk?
Being swept away
By winds so brisk.

Heavy emotions
Live day by day,
What about the families
That are left astray?

Does it not matter
About babies not born yet?
Not being able to meet their father or mother
No feelings of regret?

What about the children
That had to say goodbye?
Is money that imporant
You had to make them cry?

What about the death warrant
You signed for each of them?
You'll be answering to God
For these loving gems.

Their blood is on your hands
How does it feel?
What about the families
Whose hearts won't be able to heal?

It makes me wonder about what the HELL was George Bush thinking? Our government isn't any better. There are Canadians being killed in Afghanistan.
