The Battles In My Head

The darkness lands,

Covering my weary eyes,

Hoping, Praying,

That they will not come,

To slaughter my happiness,

The war on fear begins,

Why do I not believe

My comrades that the

Battle shall be won,

Why does the sound

Of a cannon scare me,

More than my fellow soldiers,

My heart aches when I think,

of her. Asleep in her bed she

also thinks of me

When will my wound heal,

Or will I die fighting not

just for my country or my love

but for my happiness?
