My Life

Poppies represent courage
Poppies represent blood
Poppies represent the heart
Which took courage and blood shed

Women of Britain say “Go!”
Pick up your bag and leave
Your country needs you
Just leave me here and “go!”

The filthy trenches far from home
Dirt, mud fills my life
Poor food makes surviving hard
Oh tell me, how far away are you from my life?

Gore, blood completes my mind
The end of everyone I knew
Gunshots are everywhere, back and fro
When will I know that I have a peace of mind?

Bang, bang a sudden attack
Bang, bang I crawl underneath the wire
War surrounds me-Oh help me!
May God have pity over me, were my last words…
