" Why Oh Why "
Why Mom and Dad why
Was I destined and born into this life to die
This terrorist war makes so many American’s just cry
Our awesome super power America may be going to war
And now I may cease to exist this life no more
I grew up and finished school with a 3.5
I am so proud to be alive
I am 18 now and so ready for life
Find someone special and make her my wife
Our job market and economy is really bad
All of this really makes me mad and sad
I joined the army for income stability
And now I must face the ugly reality
Of fighting a war in a foreign country
And possibly become a statistical casualty
You see Mom, Dad, I want to live
I have strong morals, education, lots to give
I am too young to go off to war and die
Why Mom and Dad, Why Oh Why!!!!!

| awesome poem...I can relate to that because one of my friends went to Iraq with the Marines and was killed at 19. He told his mom before he left..."I dont want to die a hero, I just want to come back home to my loved ones". I have friends and loved ones overseas right now...and I hope they all come home safe!! |
