Hey bobbie!

Very nice. I like this. And really liked how it turned around at the end there. Only two things caught my eye:

Though war's so hard to explain" was thinking THOUGH should be THIS, even though you haven't mentioned the specific war...very minor.

and FINGER SNAP "sounded" odd to me for some reason, though probably better than the proverbial and cliched "blink of an eye!" If anything pops in my head, i'll come back.

I liked it!
