War Life

It's quit. 
Not a sound. 
It's hot. 
Nothing but sand. 

It's almost day time. 
That's when it starts. 
I can see people setting up. 
I can hear people talk but I don't know what they are saying. 
I hear a sound. 
Its sounded like a pop. 
It's was. 

Now there's a lot of popping sounds. 
I see people falling. 
I see people yelling. 
I see people dying. 
It's war. 
There is nothing good about it. 

Why do we fight? 
Why do we kill? 
I was told killing was wrong but yet i'm here killing. 
I know they killed first but still should we kill back? 

Should we be called hero's? 
Should we stop fighting? 
Should we keep killing? 
I don't know. 
But my leaders say yes.
