The Battle of the Nek
By KheSahn BRONZE
Mackay, Other

The order was given, For us to go over. We didn’t stand tall, Or shoulder to shoulder, We knew we would die, That was for sure, Why were we dying like this in the war?...

Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it&#039;s yours.&rdquo;<br /> ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Favorite Quote:
&quot;It&#039;s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won&#039;t be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.&quot; -Bette Mier
