                                                                AM I ALIVE
                       

In the trenches of war
And shadows of wire bars
Where life is so far
Still hope for some peace at par

I can see men near and far
Bleeding furiously , dodging death
In such adverse conditions though
Still I have my faith in peace

To miles up the horizon
I only see black smoke
I can smell burning rubber
And its all that I feel

The word humanity is at its end
The world is now a devil's den
Fire and flesh scattered all around
Bombs flying past weighing a thousand pound

I just know one thing
Bounded to my destiny, i may die
But my fight against the odds will always keep me alive
In the hearts of men and women i love

In these killer fields
I am not fearing death
But i am loving life

I cherish every moment of my life
The years in the lap of my mother
The years on the shoulder of my father
My infancy, My teens , My adolescents

My friends and my foes
You all rest in peace
And you know
I am hit
