May 2017
There a soldier lied on the exhausted sanatorium bed.
Stay unvoiced and insensitive as he bled.
Faintly opened his eyes to observe the mayhem,
While a red uniformed nurse was announcing several names.

At the same time as I, Dr. Bell the way I was known
Reached and stood beside him to analyze the boy alone
The other doctors refused to examine him as he was a foe
Whereas I, Dr. Bell known as a savior has a life to bestow

Neither did he move nor did he watch me staring at him
But relentlessly looked blankly on a white wall with a grim
Suddenly he gradually inserted his red hand into his pocket
To pull out a photograph soaked with blood and sweat

Tears flowed down from his eyes as kept on staring at it
I wore my spectacles and approached nearer to inspect it
I was accurately traumatized to an extended degree
For what it contains is a picture of his family!

He closed his eyes and remained silent for his life to dim
Finally, he inhaled his finishing breath before the last glimpse.
