Legs, straining
Pain, excruciating
Sadness, looming
Loneliness, accumulating
My future further
An alert to my health
They said, it is time to go
Mom beckoned me home
I will never
Hear the waves
Feel the ship rocking
Donning the uniform
Saluting with pride
For I did not make it
Years I yearned the post
Now it is just my forgotten dust
Farewell my dream
Determined soul
Fighting against defeats
For I am a newborn
Learning to love
For love is my strength
Oh lord please tell me
Tell me it is all worthwhile
