The Day after D-Day

Every quest has a goal that is sought
Each war has broken lives as a result
For every victory, there is a defeat
For every life lost there is a funeral
Winners and losers co-mingle
On the fields where they'd fought
Creating a world with great sorrow
Over the many losses
But perhaps greater hope
For the blood they've shed
A sacrifice offered, so great the cost
Victory created a new world
Over the old world
One which violence had wrought
