Truths of a Soldiers Mind By: Cheryl Ford

Bullets fly through the cloudy air Bombs explode shaking the earth People scream with the pain of death Seeing nothing while walking through poppies Hiding in deep trenches Anticipating going over the top Running to death into machine gunfire Friends dieing left and right Rushing for the gas masks For some it too late their lungs filled with poison Family back home with no idea Cheering as if the war is good Forgotten soldiers give their lives Troops on the move not looking back Destroying all the towns on the way Innocent people now with no future Not sure whos winning Its all a blur Cant think anymore Its all just kill kill kill When will people know the truth When will they see all the pointless deaths When will the realze its for nothing And when will all the forgotten soldiers be recognized for the heros that they really are.
