WE HAVE COME HOME BY LENRE PETERS We have come home From the bloodless war With sunken hearts Our boots full of pride                                     5           From the true massacre of the soul                                                 When we have asked                                                 “What does it cost?                                                 To be loved and left alone”                                                 We have come home                                     10        Bringing the pledge                                                 Which is written in rainbow colors?                                                 Across the sky – for burial                                                 But it is not the time                                                 To lay wreaths                                     15        For yesterday’s crimes.                                                 Nig
