Poem: Soldier
The blackness consumes,
Why do I fall in love?
When I know I will die,
It is so hard to prove it,
So hard to express how I am,
Look back into battle,
I wish I could see your eyes,
But the bullets fly everywhere,
Will I ever be with you?
Bask in the sun,
And share the love with you,
So many die,
So many cry,
When will it be my turn?
To be shot and die,
How can they leave me in this?
I was never to demanding,
I had a life,
Bombarding planes fly over head,
Firing everything they have,
The screams of many,
Replace the laughs from you,
I left you standing,
Alone in this cruel world,
Traveled so far,
I left you,
With a tear in your eye,
The battle circles around,
People screaming why,
My friends fall to the ground,
In this suicide charge into hell,
Why are we fighting?
Does it matter?
Because when I did,
The only thing I will see,
Is her love,
And her beautiful eyes.
