Truce

A truce has been called.
The conflict is to stall.
Wars will never end.
It's human nature to fight,
but the sides need the respite.
They need to recoup.
They need to reevaluate.
Priorities must be set.
The future or the present.
A choice must be made.
But where does each lie?
Confusion will never end.
Yet they all fight on.
It's the fighting the keeps them going,
not so much the target.
For they know it will be destroyed.
Their very fight destroys it.
Neither will reach it.
Yet they will try.
They will give their lives in sacrifice.
They sacrifice all, for the impossible.
Don't they know it is impossible?
They must always try.
