A SOLDIER'S PLIGHT
A SOLDIER'S PLIGHT

In the battle
there lies the saddle
A panorama of chaos
a scene of remorse

The struggles of wars
The pain like sores
emanating from this scene
deep in stance very keen

I have thought of life
I have thought of death
all in this strife
Holding my breath

The sight of blood
flowing like flood
and the lost of lives
in hikes

With my gun I was in burns
my colleagues slumps
in my very own sight
this I saw with my eye

I had lost it all
I'm expecting my own call
This is a deadly activity
full of horror sensitivity

A soldier is in travail
so far as life is concerned
this is a truth entail
that must be discerned
