Fallen Soldier *

Crimson pools, unbridled desolation,
Succumbed to thief in the night evoke devastation.
Fields of foreign soil, whispers masked, overshadowed,
Bleak is the wintry air that fills his lungs, laid harrowed.

Bright are the thoughts of days long past,
Moments of clarity in darkness cast.
Emphatic ruin bestowed him remains,
Honours thyself on murderous plains.

Lay in cold bearing fatal stain,
With one last breath hate abstain.
Sacrifice takes him to new tranquil abode,
Remember him, our respect is owed.
