War torn

Glimpses
Of hate and destruction
Plague
My mind

No one
Understands
No one
Cares

I can feel
The souls of the dead
I can hear
Their cry of resent

Hidden by a façade
My emotions kept in check
Raging anger at myself
For the crimes I've committed

Tormented by my dreams
My nights go without rest
Unable to forget
My life becomes my nightmare

My desire to die
Goes unnoticed
My mental wounds
Go untended

To live my life
Day by day
Is like a fatal wound
To my heart

No family to rely on
No friend to speak of
No one to care for
No one to love me

There is no god!
Or I would not have to suffer
So many would not have had to suffer
...Because of me...

But this is war
Everyone's a victim
The only ones to prosper
Are the ones that have died

A soldier I am
My only hope
A thought a peace
...
