War

by Jo Hornsey   May 18, 2006


I am new,
And the faces I see,
Are young and eager,
Just like me.

We are trained,
Drop down and do twenty,
It wasn't a bad life,
Then I was reassigned.

I was assigned to another group,
Right in the middle,
I had to go, though i was like a dolphin,
Told to jump through a hoop.

When I arrived i made a few friends,
Then the next day we had to fight,
I saw dead men around me,
All of them where my friends.

I look back now,
In hope one day,
I'll for get what I saw,
But then I think how.
