I heard the birds chirping.
I heard the heavy popping of the machine guns.
I heard the screams of my comrades.
I heard the cries of the enemy.
I remember the blue skies.
I remember the sight of empty cases flying.
I remember the fear in their faces.
I remember the anger in their eyes.
I felt the warm breeze on my skin.
I felt the weight of the souls I took with me.
I felt the bodies hit mine as they fell under the strafing.
I felt their bullets tear through me.
Please don't forget.
Remember those that fell.
