Edited War Poem

Men shooting at each other

Risking their lives

for peace

for freedom

To make their country more powerful

To say they’re better

Leaving their families in fear

Wondering if they’re alive

Always moving, never standing still,

Always the fear of death

Always the fear of never seeing your loved ones again

One wrong step, one flinch

one mistake, costs everything

Most hearts beat faster than ever

Some don’t beat at all

this is no video game

only 1 life, 1 soul

Is it worth it?

Sacrificing themselves, for what?

More land?

Is it worth it?

All the fear involved in war?

Just to be recognized as a brave soul?

Is it worth it?

Of course it is.
