Personal Narrative: The Aliens

After the tens of thousands of years, this war between the humans and the aliens just seems to refuse to end. Now I, as well as several others, are stuck fighting in this never-ending war several thousand light years from our home and families. We were tired and we missed home. Every day we have wondered if we would ever return home again, if we’ll even live to see the earth’s oceans or the blue sky, although we’ve heard rumours that the same Earth we have lived on before was not the same as when we had left it.
