At Times of War

At times of war we are all prepared
Prepared for our fates
Fates of life or death in any seconds
Seconds into the battle and the fate of death is at many
Many bodies scattered on the floor
Floor covered with the stench of blood
Blood of the heros, friends and family
Family praying for a safe return soon
Soon, we fear, is far,far away
Away from our previous lives
Lives, sadly thrown into hell
Hell, here on earth, caused by human hands
Hands shake in fear as they grip rifles
Rifles, which are reluctantly fired
Fired to the opposing enemys
Enemys who should not be attacking
Attacking, are they also saddened?
Saddened at this time of war
War that just keeps going
Going on and on, never ending
Ending brave at times of war
