A soldiers plea...

My lord, my love, I stand here today.

with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul. My soul is wounded battered broke.
The only friend I have, is this rifle at hand. For me, to see and to love again is my only demand.

This place, I`m at war, is good enough for hell. For friends and foes, are all full of fright, who is evil I cannot tell. My wife at home cries, my daughter at home denies. Although I`m beat tell them I love them both I`ll be there and that I`ll always care.

MY Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul. The bullets pierced me, my heart and my soul. I ly here waiting, for death to take it`s toll. my best friend died, right in front of my eyes.
his screams of terror and agony, as he pushed me aside., the bullet hit him in his heart, he knew it would from the start. I crawled to him, holding him, crying out
please don't go ,please without you I can`t fight..
I`m sorry he says, I did all I can, please for me, take what is mine. His grippening hand, I held as I can,
and right out that, a picture fell out perfect and toned,
His wife, his kids, and him all at home.

MY Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul. My soul is wounded battered and broke. I`ve not only lost my family, but my friend that I hold, and all of reality.
Theres blood in my eyes, my heart feeling cold.
Please lord, let me die this day,let me not stay. Today is the day, my life will just fade. never before have I seen this kind of war.

MY Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
I`m standing alone in what seems to be hell., I glance to the side and see a soldier so cold.a whisper of fear as a tear covers his face..
He closes his eyes falls deep into sleep.
He whispers slowly as he beings to pray. This is what I heard, from the soldiers so brave.
lord, my love, I lay here today, with tears
in my eyes and fear in my soul, let me die and
rest in peace. Please for me, let the fighting cease.
At that moment his breathing stops to cease, another
picture at hand, a hand who has fought, fought for lords sake, please lord how much more can I take.

MY Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul
You stood by my side, now I realize, my brothers
died for their love, and all of their friends.

My Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul
Help me he yells, I can go no longer.
As enemy troops, gain foot and come closer.
I run to him and pick him up,
a shrieking pain occurs
as I rush to him and push him far away.
A gunfight commences, I know not
which side is mine. Today I pay the price
This 2nd time today I have died twice.
The brother I rescued, rushes to me,
thank you here let me see. no
I say, go to your family. The ones that need mend. Please he cries just let me see. He tears up and cries.
No, Today is the day. Return home
After today you`ll be the hero. Return to your wife
as her soldier, her love, her mate her hero.
My breathe slips away my eyes dial-ate
fight on I whisper as my vision begins to fade.
The last detour, before I left home.
Was what I heard the prayer of a soldier, the soldiers plea.

Praying soldier:
MY Lord My Love, I Stand Here Today,
with tears in my eyes and fear in my soul
Bless this brave soldiers, whose lost it all at war
what has he done , what is all this pain for.
Please for me let him feel pain no more.
Give him his love, please just restore.
The love of a soldier so brave and so strong.
Please hear me out for this is my plea
not jut any plea, see this is,
A Soldiers Plea

I knew I was`nt alone.
As I slowly left for home.
