Total darkness,
the still of the night,
the sounds of suffering,
the rank smell of fright...

Every step that you take,
the snap of a twig!
A voice from the dew shouts
“go home you pig.”

What goes through your mind?
What are you thinking?
Eyes wide open
and not even blinking...

“I am a Soldier...
I am here to protect,
To serve God and my country
I must not forget.”

“I will lay down my life,
so others might live.
I will pray to the Lord,
and beg he forgives.”

“I AM A SOLDIER,
a life I must take;
my weapon is firing...
and it's no mistake!”

An enemy's body falls
and lays dead on the ground....
The night returns to silence,
not one single sound...
