this OM is about a soldier, who is prepared and understands he will face death in his next mission, and writes a letter to his wife from the journey to the last seconds of his sad death.
One Last Wish
Sunday 8th December – The Journey
As I grasp my M4, steadily in my hand
I prepare for my walk, 21 miles, in blazing hot sand
All seems well so far, no trouble, no fear
With every footstep I take, the doomed day draws slowly near
With every move I make, pressure is lifted off my shoulder
And as night falls I shake, because It’s getting much colder
One man is down, so a dead man in my arms, I’m towing
But you’re my motivation, inspiration, that keeps me going
No idea where we’re heading too, no idea what we’ll face
Say our grace, as death is a possibility we need to embrace
Close my eye’s, and you’re the first thing on my mind
Endure the heat, venture on, there’s no looking behind
How many more we need to lose…
…before the war will end
Why is it violence we choose…
…this last letter I wish to send
To my family and dear friends…
…close to my heart
I’m dying, I’m losing, I cant pretend…
…for my soul is about to depart
The end is near, I can taste it…
…this journey is no longer fun
Not to be mean but face it…
…my time here is almost done
Death around the corner…
…but I keep a brave mentality
My wife now, tomorrow a mourner…
…I’m destined to be a fatality
Monday 9th December – Death Approaches
We’ve stopped before our attack, to pick up supplies
Everyone knows they may die, you can see it in their eyes
Eyes that want to cry, but only hold onto fate
Wish I could rewind my choices, but its too late
Pick up our firearms, canteens, and walk
Shouldn’t be writing letters, but I need to talk
To someone who understands my concern and fears
So many emotions inside of me, but I wont shed tears
And before I pass away, just tell Mandy
That her daddy was the one who bought her dollies and candy
She’ll understand soon the brave choice I made
The moon rises, I’m just a soldier, under deaths shade
Dream of how I will die…
…will it be homicide or suicide
Because I can’t lie…
…I’m pouring my heart out inside
Can’t cope with my destiny…
…crazy visions, I must shake
Nightmares keep testing me…
…in my sleep, before I wake
My daughter in my soul…
…I deeply miss
Her happiness is my goal…
…before I prepare to dismiss
This world, my daughter, and my wife…
…before the queue of death I align
If this isn’t the end of my life…
…please god show me a sign
Tuesday 10th December – Bleeding Tears of Love
The attack is closing in, enemies in my sight
I don’t want to shoot, but deep inside, I know I must fight
Shoot five bullets, and the raid begins to reign free
Whatever may happen, Whoever dies, let it be
Torn flesh is all I hear, as men in the zone pass away
Bullets flying astray, as I try to make my way
Back to the bushes, so my view is the best
Look down, a sharp pain, I have been shot in the chest
Medics come and take me to a safer place
My last breathing moments, the last sight of a mans face
As I jerk, blood starts to spill…
…out of my mouth and chest
A painful thrill…
…but me dying, was for the best
I don’t want to leave you behind…
...you were my everything
It goes all black, and I turn blind…
…in my mind, our love song, I sing
Die in a pool of blood, my face they cover…
…now I’m nothing but a mess
All the pain and pressure is over…
…no more worries or distress
Please do not cry for me…
…my body is dead, my soul is alive
Because now I am free…
…in your dreams, is where I survive
In history, my name will be engraved in forever gold
Because my last mission, was for my last wish to be told

Dedicated to all the soldiers, worldwide, who have left behind loved ones, fighting for their country. Amen.
