This is dedicated to all the fearless men and woman who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom.
The smoke is thick.
The war rages on around me.
My blood spilled on the ground.
My breath short.
I know what I've done.
I've fought the good fight.
I've lived for something worth dying for.
Now I know how deep my love is for freedom and family.
I see the flag as it is raised high above the hate, the enemy, the fallen bodies of those around me. Declaring to all.
We. Are. Free.
We have won.
What a wonderful feeling to capture in my last moments.
I shall see you in heaven.
How did you like it...?
(If you loved it I suggest reading my short story "Sacrifice"!) ^_^
