battlefield

where love meets hate
where anger meets affection
where jealousy meets contentment
where belief meets rejection

where loyalty meets treachery
where honesty meets deception
where justice meets injustice
where happiness meets depression

where perseverance meets impatience
where desire meets repulsion
where humility meets pride
where peace meets convulsion

where tolerance meets prejudice
where apathy meets exhiliration
where generosity meets stinginess
where forgiveness meets condemnation

where the fields are soaked in blood
where the war cries are softly sung
where battles are always fought
where battles are seldom won
