**A Soldiers Tale** Scared and alarmed Battling it out through all sorts of cruelty Oh so loud and bright as though in a storm Away we go for rest, peace and quite Uncoordinated troops Giving it everything they have Blinded by light deaf with the bangs Louder the closer we got to shelter The shots were reaching us faster and faster Come on boys were are getting wrapped in gas-RUN Fumbling around reaching for masks Thinking we are not going to make it I hear a faint sob of exhaustion Gasping for breath in this thick green soup I feel as though I am drowning and being wrapped in horror I’m helpless-what can I do? He is fading away The gas has got him Choking I feel terrible Exhaustion is getting to me We get him into the wagon Watching him slowly fade away as though someone has stolen his life If you could have seen him at this moment right now As the blood was pouring out of him I was thinking why was this happening to him? Imagine trying to get through this as death is on the doorstep. The price they paid cost so much My enthusiasm had gone down the drain But all for our country So desperate we were What a life!
