A forgoten soldier

by Tylor delcourt   Jun 17, 2007


His arm stained red
while Laying on the ground.
He starts to ponder...
am I going to die?
will I ever be found?..
His mind starts to wonder..
in the back he can hear the
gun's being fired, bombs
exploding, and the sound of
men dieing. he can hear the
men shouting, then screaming, and
he can smell the flesh burning,
even taste it.
yet again he thinks to him self
he thinks of his wife back home
and his daughter too.
he thinks of how the birth day of
his little girl is coming up and how
he must be there when she turns 5,
he think of how his anniversary
is coming up with his wife and him..
His breathing starts to slow
down to a steady pace.
he closes his eyes.
his thought is I will whisper
your name's once more...
Now his last thought is a bad
dream swifting in to a nightmare
then to a good dream. His breathing
calms to nothingness..., His heart stops...
his soul still in orbit.

    I felt off. like ur didnt put detail, emotion, haunted, lost in his mind. and u had a small miss spelling. "starts" not stars . well rather then that. it was nicly done. just b4 he dies he would say her name and fade away. nicely done 4/5
