Through a Soldiers Eyes

Through a soldier’s eyes

18 year old boys starting a new life
Fighting to save each others lives
Packed in the jungle with a gun and knife
A Pack on his back trying to survive
Voices yelling over the radio devices
A Crying mother and Worried wife
He says he’s alive in letters he sent,
As no one sees his bloody strife




Through his eyes he can only find
What a true fight is like
In the plane strapped in for the flight
He prepares for a bloody fight,
That could end his very own life
He holds on to his picture tight
for the very last time in pain
he waits for his silent night


Plane rotors humming loudly
Only thinking of his family
He’s fighting in the calvary
What can help fight his misery
-B.M.
