Don't Cry

I write this poem, here where I lay, 
Sunshine is gone, I only see grey. 
Wish I had a bit more time, 
I'm in my twenties, I'm in my prime.

But I only have a minute or two, 
My body is numb, my face is blue. 
I'm so sorry, I did my best, 
Life is leaving, through my red chest.

It all happened so sudden and fast, 
Can't help but smile, as I look at the past. 
Please don't morn, please don't cry, 
I'll look down, from the sky.

True Heroes

When there is conflict, we depend, 
Trained and ready, oversees we send. 
They fight in the lonely desert of dirt, 
With confidence, not revealing their hurt.

Their lives are ordered and very strict, 
What happens next, they cannot predict. 
Courage of lions they all possess, 
Our gratitude we should always express.

True heroes to us, they shine like a star, 
Even though, they're so very far. 
These men and women truly amaze, 
We'll cherish them, till the end of days.

War Season

Doesn't matter the type of war, 
Heartache and misery we can't ignore. 
They put their lives on the line, 
Blood and dirt, there is no shine.

Even if we have a reason, 
You won't find the ideal season, 
To leave family and kids behind, 
The worst torture, they feel blind.

If you're lucky, you come back, 
They give you a medal, and a plaque. 
In your mind, memories are clear, 
Wake up at night, with so much fear.

Soldier Speaks

Wish I could express, the emotions I feel, 
We're all expected to block and conceal. 
I need to be heard, I wish to speak, 
But if I do, they might think I'm weak.

Honestly, I'm frightened and scared, 
At seventeen, for death not prepared. 
We crawl, aim, and routinely kill, 
I feel the loss, I feel the chill.

I see children and a crying wife, 
Someone stop me, from taking more life. 
There's always a reason, always a cause, 
I will be next, if I ponder and pause.

Peace over War

War affects so many lives, 
Children, parents, husbands, and wives. 
First-hand terror for those that serve, 
No human being, such a death deserve.

Many wars are pure political, 
The pain they cause is far more critical. 
We must work on our human relations, 
Think of future generations.

Let's work on finding solutions, 
Choose non-violent revolutions. 
Hatred and anger, we must decrease, 
Only path to finding peace.

Safe and Kind

Wars and battles are very bad, 
They often make people sad. 
Many soldiers covered in dirt, 
Being shot, can really hurt.

They fight so you could be free, 
Just like a happy bumble bee. 
Let's thank soldiers for what they do, 
They try to protect, me and you.

To make the world safe and kind, 
That's something, we should keep in mind. 
Those hurt by wars, need our care, 
Think of them and say a prayer.

Why?

Why do some people start a war? 
Can't they forgive and just ignore? 
Wars can create a lot of pain, 
When there's war, there's usually rain.

Why do countries need to fight? 
Can't we just sleep at night? 
Some adults like monkey's behave, 
Hurting others is not brave.

My only wish is for peace and quiet, 
There's no need to start a riot. 
If they're mad and angry too, 
War is just a crazy zoo.
