Glowing Tribute to Fallen Nigerian Soldiers

Major M. M. Hassan
Major M. M. Hassan died on Friday, January 5, 2018, during the operation Deep Punch in Damoboa, Borno State

Fallen Soldier All Alone 
Fallen Soldier Far From Home. 
Trickling Down His Face A Tear, 
Forgetting How It Feels To Fear 
Death And All It’s Fate And Glory. 
Now It’s Here, No Need To Worry. 

Fallen Soldier All Alone 
Fallen Soldier Far From Home 
He’s One Of Those They’ll All Forget; 
The Life He Lived, The Goals He Set, 
The Ones He Loved, The Ones Who Wait 
To See His Nearly Forgotten Face. 

Fallen Soldier All Alone 
Fallen Soldier Far From Home 
Now Breathing’s Just A Waste Of Breath 
And Living’s Just A Waste Of Death 
As He Searches For A New Address; 
A Brand New Home Free Of Loneliness. 

Fallen Soldier All Alone 
Fallen Soldier Far From Home 
Lying Motionless On The Ground, 
The Battle Raging All Around. 
For Now He Is Not All Alone. 
This Fallen Soldier Is Welcomed Home.
