Sometimes I wonder
Why do men have to kill and die
Words fail,flawed reasons

It is often hard
to kill for the first time
No born killers

I aim at objects
I fire at moving targets
They do not seem to be real

On day I will die
I will die a very old man
Or in my next breath

Killing is easy
Some people even like it
But thet pay a price

Dieing is complex
We die completly alone
We are born the same way

Thoughts are done
I hope I did not offend
These thoughts are common

Very interesting and controversial thoughts here Paladin.  Penned very well and made interesting...as only you can.  Gave me something to ponder this evening.

paladin - this is a very heavy and thought provoking piece. Well done. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
