Fallen Soldier
Fighting for the weak,
My body littered with lead.
Killing all that threatens,
I trudge through a swamp of corpses.
Selfless for the ungrateful,
I fade away in a pool of blood.
No love for the defended,
My dreams end for yours.
Ultimately inspired by "Bad Dream" by Keane which came from "An Irish Airmen Foresees his Death" by W.B. Yeats.
