White Flag

The empty eyes will forever stare,
searching for the one to take them.
Their bodies will be forever there,
waiting for someone to bury them.

In his mind he will see them,
haunting him to his end.
For he was told to shoot them,
and orders he could not bend.

He was told to shoot the men,
despite the white flag waving.
His finger twitched and killed them,
despite the white flag waving.
