The 43rd War



War

A living entity
that leaves destruction
in its wake

Sprawled dead bodies
face down on the ground
begging to be buried

Like the relentless crashing of waves on the shore
I will never give up
fighting for my country
wether I'm a soldier
or a teacher

If a gun represents terrible memories
I am the soldier that is holding it
two things that are inseperable

I have been witness
to the terrible truths
of war

The 43rd war

Good work here. The presentation is solid and your choices of images were really good. I also liked the writing as most of the entries were reflective rather than simply re-telling. Overall an excellent effort. Well done!
