It was 4:00am. My
alarm chimed. When I turned the TV on devastating war had broken out on every
channel. And to think I was going to the battle field today. I guess I was used
to war torn cities, families and people but never the death nor the weapons. Even
though I was terrified I would be helping my country. I walked out the door and
started my journey. As I walked through the forest I noticed a man lifeless in
the dirt. In his hand he was holding a loaded gun I picked it up and bent it
into a knot.
Hi Mya maze!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your story a lot. It is very imaginative and also quite thought provoking.
So many people wake up in real life to the realities of living in a war zone. It is terrible to think about how difficult their lives must be. Maybe it would be better if we could tie a knot in the barrel of every gun.
I thought you used very good language in your story, in particular I liked how you used the word "nor" as this is a interesting word that also made your writing sound very grown up. Well done for writing about such a challenging subject and for handling the topic so well, I thought the tone was just right.
Keep on writing!
