A Brighter Tomorrow.

Written for a school assignment on war.

Midst the bravest of your kind,

unconscious of the trials and banes that await you,

bright eyed and with spirits high,

both you and your heart set sail.

Through the course of the oceans,

nor waves of emotion or those of the sea hindered the spirits of you and your brothers.

With dreams the sun would shine brighter tomorrow,

and night wouldn't last as long,

It felt as though the whole world were in your hands.

Until that fateful morning however,

as you set about you conquer,

only for your dreams of rousing tomorrow,

blown away by a gust of bullets.
