My fingers are bleeding <br />My knuckles are sore <br />We're finally coming <br />To an end with this war <br />The fighting <br />The bleeding <br />The wanting <br />The needing <br />The everlasting <br />Endless sorrow <br />Praying that <br />We'll see tomorrow <br />My hands are tainted <br />With blood of the innocent <br />It's just a few murders... <br />It can't be significant... <br />Evacuate <br />Go....run and hide <br />A murderer is <br />Among you tonight <br />Am I to blame <br />For all this brutality? <br />I killed a father <br />In front of his family <br />I can trust no one <br />Inside of this canyon <br />My knife and my rifle <br />Are my only companions <br /> <br />...But now..... <br />I'll end this tonight <br />I'll gather my courage <br />And stand up and fight <br />Against all this carnage <br />Nothing will stop me <br />No one will live <br />It's not in my nature <br />To ever forgive <br />I'll take down the army <br />I'll take down the man <br />I'll make sure that no one <br />Dies for this again! ! <br />We fight for you <br />We fight for me <br />We fight for god <br />And our country <br />We die for everything <br />That we admire <br />Lock and load boys... <br />Ready. Aim. Fire! ! <br /> <br />(Dedicated to my good friend Anthony Guadamuz! Good luck in the Marines Corps!) <br /> <br />(Inspired by M.I.A. ~ Avenged Sevenfold) <br /> <br />(Additional thanks to all our military forces and to all the men who fight for what they believe in and what is right...whether it be now or then....Here or there...fight for your rights...always! !)<br /><br />Ryan Joseph Holder<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ready-aim-fire/
