War Makes Men Mad

Dearest marie

as the war ends for me, 

i have no regrets

i’ve seen too much horror 

i hope fate has been more merciful to you

our time on earth is brief

and mine has been filled with so much joy

that i can only be thankful for how much i’ve been blessed

most specially, for the wonder you brought into my life. 

this letter is my last, 

i’ve been found guilty by a military court for the death of an officer

it was not my intention to kill him

war makes men mad

though i failed karl, 

i know my sacrifice has not been in vain

i fought for my country and my liberty, 

my honor is assured

Since it is the will of God to separate us on earth

i hope we’ll meet again in heaven

keep me in your prayers

your loving papa, 

always.
