It's not an easy thing to turn your back on the ones you love.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK0p6rTg4o
They say it's something that cowards do, and they couldn't be more wrong.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf7Aj3t9XV
It's an act of courage. To overstep those boundaries of trust, to go against the irrationality of emotion for the greater good.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwQFOu8OpJ
I tell myself this as I walk down the road, fields passing by and their cries fading away, but it doesn't stop their tears from stinging more than mine.
Death awaits me in a carriage, with a uniform and a mustache. On his wrist, a watch that my family and I would never be able to afford with a lifetime of savings, counting down the hours until I die. It may be just twenty four. It may be over a thousand. Little metal hands clicking clockwise eternally, but eventually even their cold insides will rust and grind to a halt.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcQyYkEcMG
Some other boys who are joining with me seep slowly out of their houses. Their families, too, are saved.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRser6NmfQd
Their friends, too, are condemned.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWvgaruHVx
Solemn glares all round, no greetings or banter now. We've come to fight against our own country in return for our family's safety. 882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoFUrexloT

Eyes that scream, filth.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUTKylFjvG
Down the road, a broken promise awaits.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp29X948a3G
You said our families would be safe.882Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrDOA7w9vq
But the watch hands keep ticking, the wheels keep rolling, and the lone hearts keep breaking, because since when was a coward's promise kept?
