A Scar; Anthony.
The hole darkens in my heart,
A loss is too heavy to hold,
Memories of losses I cannot forget,
It is a permanent stain in my mind,
Reason and morals are overrun by war,
Pure souls are damaged,
Images never leaving,
Replaying and replaying,
A deep scar.
Pain & Sorrow.

History is a significant subject and lesson in our entire life.
With History, one learns to understand the past and will actually modify one's attitude for life.
Without History, riots and strikes may still occur- No one will ever identify the consequences of communal fights, racism and even oppression. As a student of History, we must change the ways we handle things and of course, we do not follow the people who lived through our history, as they knew little of their wrongdoings.
We should bring up the fighting spirit of our heroic warriors, and respect them for their loyalty. By studying History, we are indirectly preventing the influence of others with wrong infomation about the past.
To appreciate Singapore's history, we must truly understand the events that happened before the 21st century, and not forgetting the present. This applies to the study of other countries.
To touch the past and to appreciate it- This is History.
The trenches of Hell.
