Loving you in times of war

Two soldiers
Middle of the war
One wounded bleeding out
Bullets flying
A church a temporary haven
One an atheist
Let down by the world and everyone
One too many times
The other brought up christian
Now battle-changed
And strayed from faith
One says to the other
Lets get married
Against all odds
Two male soldiers
A superior and a subordinate
In an abandoned church
On the outskirts of a war-torn town
Promise themselves to each other
Sooner rather than later
Till death do us part
