There wasn't a thing he wouldn't do to see them smile.
He'd fight proudly, knowing that the cry of battle echoing was a life they'd chosen.
He'd give his last breath, long and drawn so it found its way to embrace everyone.
He'd die for them, grinning, knowing they tasted their own bittersweet victory.
He'd hope the flowers would tickle their noses the day they mourned, reminding them of the life that still mingled.
He wasn't a medic, but he knew he'd find a way to reach down from the heavens, sturdy hands washing away the hurt. The wounds would sting a while, but he'd find a way.
For his village, his family, anything.
