Just a Sonnet X

A war begun as the hearts collide 
Soldiers to walk together and be an eye for an eye
And put hope in a grenade to never divide
Learning to shoot emotions to grow wings to fly 
Fighting for something more it flows in the veins 
Allies to begin with never thought of betrayal Gasoline on hearts burning to the last remains 
Breathing smog dying for love, Romeo and Juliet portrayal.

A broken wing bird, feels caged, the other leaves 
Time for reality, a garden to visit and try pollination 
War restart, hearts disconnecting, not to fall in deceives
A fruit forbidden, standing for another ally another nation
It destroyed men, eating from my friend's plate 
A pawn on the board, to win I went a path straight.
