The enemy planes
Are flying overhead
We might be bombarded anytime.
I can't say this out loud but I am scared.
Scared of losing my life.
Scared of killing the enemy
Every noise makes me think that this is the end
Every bullet that is fired from the enemy's gun
Is meant for me.
Everything around me is admant to take my life
This is it.
I do not want to fight anymore
I can not fight for this pride.
I want to go home.
Who do I tell this to?
I can't risk running away from here.
I'm doing what is expected of me.
I have to do it for my family.
