War
There go
The soldiers
Marching
To war
There go
The soldiers
Marching
To battle
There go
The soldiers
Marching
Into fire
There go
The soldiers
Marching
Alongside Death
There go
The soldiers
Marching
The brave soldiers
Moving
For a cause
Their country's cause
Not their cause
Not their fight
There go
The weapons
The people
Are no more
When
The soldiers
Go marching
To war.
You know, I've never had much skill at poetry, but reading this makes me want to at least give it a try. A good read, indeed.
