Journey To Battle

JOURNEY TO BATTLE We fight to win Not to die Why then Is there victory in death? Choices in battlefield Come only duo; Either every thing is check Or everybody turns wreck. This ‘the heck Along dragged by the bloodshed of freedom. On my journey to battle I stare yonder on a warship deck, Recalling the beautiful ‘morn’ When she gave her last peck Embraced my cheek with the last warm breath, And the look emaciated by those teary emerald eyes Perhaps forever Or till end of battle. Her teardrops made me remember He who loved by words once said; “Parting is such sweet sorrow Leaving one so hollow” But then Y.O.L.O* Tomorrow might bring a happy reunion, An end to battle. Perhaps victory in death there is after all. I don’t know. *you only live once.
