June 6, 1944

The cost of Normandy, France

Dear, those close to me

I, a young lad at the age of 21

For the country, I was told 

“Fight”

This land has done for me what no one else could

I was ready for the battle ahead

I let my blood spill 

For this country of mine 

The clouds above 

and the seas below 

For this country, we rode 

Our destination 

Normandy, France

My comrades and I 

We ran ahead

“Boom”

The sky above covered in red

The seas below panted the same 

For this country, I died in the war

I fought for those I love

Lived for the days to come

Dear, A dead man

Dead by the first wave.
