Soldier
I know that as I drift away
Away into the night
That come the mornings dawn
I once again will fight
A feeling of despair
Shall grip my heart once more
And as now come the day
When death is at my door
A force no one can change
Or ever hope to beat
Rises from the ashes
Of battles final heat
So now I gaze around me
And savor these last breaths
I long now so profoundly
To escape eternal death
My life is gone
Whispered away
By voices now unheard
So I sit in this black meadow
And write my final word
Return To Main
