Battle
Surrounded, before the charge
Hope slips
And the guns barrage
Fires at our flanks.
Retreat is not an option
The horn signal has not
,,,,,gone
Two
blows
The Sergeant rides behind us.
We can feel the breath
of our
foes.
Blood is in the river, onto the banks
It goes.
Bullets pass by like angry bee’s
And my bunk mate feels the sting
His mouth opens wide as if yawning
His spirit leaves before
the scream
the river runs red, and flows like open
veins,
I must stop looking behind me,
For the enemy does nothing ,,
But gains.
The goal is in sight
I’m one of the few
To reach
the villains lair
I don’t hear the weapon fire
I drop into the river
As I float I begin to drift
And I
Melt away
In the crimson water.
