Soldier's Life

The tears of yesterday

are the rivers of today

flowing fast and swift

without a drop of mercy

created by the pain

of a thousand souls

endless and endless

they are the heart and soul

of the tormented ones

Why must I be the one?

Why can't I be selfish

and wallow is self pity

and shrug everything off?

but I can't

because it is my mission

to bear and stand

the unbearable

to be able to survive

the night through

until my mission is complete

I will sit in silence

unable to cry my pain

unable to relieve my heart

I will sit until I am able

to pass my pain

to the next,

to let my torch burn out

Then I will be free

I will be able to pass

on to the next realm

there hopefully

I will be able to rest

let myself lie down

to rest my weary heart,

close my eyes

of course, until my next mission.
