Tears of a Soldier

In the battlefield of bloody action the warrior charges with the loaded gun across all barriers, treads the thorny ground surreptitiously mined, notion of death doesn’t enter the vengeful mind. The face of his little daughter waiting at home long, smiles in a faded photograph he carries all along, he has no time to look at her gleaming face now, for he needs to march forward to keep his vow. He is on sole mission to attack and kill the enemy with the hands that caressed his daughter fondly, within his heart that will keep her alive forever, survival instinct drives away the fear of death ever. The valiant soldier returns home winning the war, with sad feeling for the fallen friends in heart’s core, whose loved ones will bear the grief of their demise, and as he embraces his daughter tears fill his eyes. _________________ June 30, 2022 Contest : Tears Of A Valiant Soldier Sponsored by : Faraz AJmal
