Fight

I see blood gushing out of his chest and I stood at the corner and take a deep breath, they have been exchanging gunfire for more than nine hour and he has taken down a hundred and twenty men with  a little hand gun and a AK 47.

 He has a simple grin on his face but he kept spraying bullets all over the place, you can never tell that he is a shooter he only shoots on the battlefield for that alone is real. 

He has an accurate hand and every gunshot takes root that leaves his hand, bullets kept blazing over the enemy’s head puncturing trees,  knocking out electric grids and leaving a hundred men dead; he is swift as a breeze and he is the best they have on the strip.

When you fight, you must fight for something good; when you fight, you must fight to be understood, when fight you must fight with your bare hand, when you fight you must fight with dignity in your left and right hand.

I don’t fight for land and spoils, I fight to maintain my status and stay alive, I fight for love and peace, I fight to maintain my values and pride and I fight to keep the bad energy out of my life.

On a day like, today thousand of men crept up on the shores of Normandy to liberate the world from the Nazi, more than a hundred and fifty thousand men descended upon the lion’s den; they crawl on their bellies and knees but they walked straight into the enemy’s field.

Landmine laced the shore and before end of the day more than four thousand of the allied forces were dead, with bag packs on their back and boots in their hands, they invade the beach of Normandy and continue to move out of the restless sea onto dry land  the symbols are there to show you what happen there.

Fight when you are feeling down, fight when you want to leave the town; fight when the burden is heavy fight when you don’t have money, everything in life involves a fight when you are in a hurry you have got to fight.

The days are passing quickly and there is much contention on the hill, you cannot get anything done if you don’t fight, fight for what you believe in, fight to change your daily living, fight to keep the marriage alive, fight to keep the demon out of your life.

 Fight to preserve your relationship, fight to keep your business on the lift. If you don’t fight you cannot live, if you don’t fight you cannot forgive. Fight when you are in trouble, fight to get out of the rubble.
