Memento

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.
