Repent

I was a  young brave soldier 
When we attacked  enemy country 
We destroyed the  region of enemy 
I felt proud in myself 
Then we returned 
People welcomed us with garlands 
We celebrated 
Sang songs and danced 
One night, we had slept 
our enemies   
Attacked us, 
they destroyed every thing 
our Family and friends were killed 
the bodies had scattered in the fields 
People were crying 
All homes have been damaged 
I am remembering 
When I attacked 
I destroyed region 
Now, I am repenting 
I felt weakness in my self 
To see it 
And my enemy is celebrating 
But, 
They would repent soon 
As me
