Could Have Been - Should Have Been
Events have caused me to look at my life. To add to my value to lessen my strife. To do all that I planned when I was still young, to live my dreams, to be someone. But events took their turn in the shape of a gun, told by who wields it to kill someone. In the name freedom, country and king beliving that war is a glorious thing - Until. Events cause him to look at his life, to imagine a future, a possible wife. To see the woman in his sight , to lower his weapon, to do what is right. But the life that he longed for is shattered instead as a bullet sends his dreams to the land of the dead.
