A Soldiers Despair


I just killed a man

why does it have to be like this

ibwant to give my family

one last kiss

 

i can't believe

i was one that was chose

i want to see my wife again

the one I love the most

 

i once met a man

long long ago

we became the best of friends

but why did he have to go

 

its hard not to think

of my family at home

i want to be with them again

now I am alone

 

i love my family

and my friends

now is the time

i see my end
