War/ Tough Choices

By Anonymous

There were booms
There were bangs
I hated the feeling of war
I felt bad for everyone

I had to make a huge choice
He was in my scope
I don’t know what to do
Do it my way……Die
Do it for my country…….Boom, he dies
I have to save my country
It is my job

He was still in my scope
He wasn’t moving
Boom….1 gone
Bang…..2 gone
Cling…..3 gone
Ding…...4 gone
I lost my mind
I couldn’t do it anymore
The choice ended
I’m done
