Take One Last Breath

War is an abomination of a life
Country Vs Country
Men Vs Men
Troubled Children and Women waiting at home

Guns blazing everywhere
Bombs create craters in the earth
Men falling to the ground taking their last breath
Taste of smoke and dust blocking their lungs

The smell of the dead intoxicate the air
The sound of guns deafens the ears
Crawling in pools of red blood
Wondering if we will ever go home?
