I* am a soldier
I defend my Honour
I defend my owner?
I am a soldier
I am a holder
Of what am I the holder?
Of justice, of peace?
Or of a diplomatic *greed?
I am a soldier
I will get older
But in my head,
The war is never over**.

To soldiers. Soldiers of every country, of every post, on every side.
Not everyone is blind to the service, to the sacrifice. Thank you.

This is no way to die

A million ways to die,
But to die without a smile,
Without a glint of light in the eyes.

Without a soul by your side,
Nor a love in your life.

Remnants, none to find
Descendants none,
The end of the line.

This is no way to die.

It is not death,
When there never was life.

— The End —
