Life or Death

​So many I knew
So many who had it all going
for them
Lost it all to a single shot
Life or death
They chose dEaTh
 
It could have been
me
just one step
over the ledge
gone beyond life
to a place of no return
 
There’s no tomorrow
when you load
that bullet in the chamber
We’re already dead
the moment we take
that first step over
 
Goodbye to all
the fallen soldiers
You will be missed
for your greatest of sins
is that you touched
all our hearts
