Fighters

We, the fighters, when?
Us, innocent men

Ordered to fight,
filling with fright.

We can’t pretend,
or even defend.

After the order,
there is only disorder

Bullets in our head.
Down amongst the dead.

Down, we were called.
Down, we were pulled.

Down to the dead.
Final tears shed

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@: akiraa_artly
