A Soldier's Thoughts

An Angel's Tears

~An Angel’s tears

within the rain~

~Her heart in fear

for those in pain~

~Wings spread wide

to cover those~

~Calming cries

within their Souls~

~She walks with them

in shadows hide~

~An Angel’s hymn

she does recite~

~Guide me Lord

to keep them safe~

~By your accord

their every wake~

~No mountain high

nor valley low~

~Shall keep my flight

from calming Souls~

~She spreads her wings

in calming peace~

~Amen she sings

with Heaven’s glee~

I feel such pain

~My hunger grows

to be at ease~

~My Mortal soul

is not at peace~

~I feel such pain

from years gone past~

~My mind insaned

in everlast~

~My every night

is filled with fear~

~I dream in fright

my body sears~

~I stay not sleep

nor do I wake~

~In Limbo’s keep

my body quakes~

~My hunger grows

to be at ease~

~My mortal soul

it yearns for peace~

~I pray my Lord

he gave me life~

~To wield his sword

and end this strife~

~To cleanse my soul

and ease my pain~

~To make me whole

be not insaned~

The Devils Curse

~So Long ago

so far away~

~I lost my Soul

in Satan’s fray~

~I went to war

a Soldier’s plight~

~So much the horror

so many died~

~Many were friends

many were not~

~They met their ends

in Satan’s plot~

~Not all a man

but not a child~

~My Soul was dammed

my mind defiled~

~But eighteen years

I was of age~

~I did not fear

so full of rage~

~But now I dream

of all the death~

~I wake in scream

I cannot rest~

~In constant pain

my life astray~

~Am I insane

the Devil’s prey~

~I pray each night

to end this curse~

~The Devil’s bite

is all the worse~

~My every dream

filled is with horror~

~I wake in scream

still at war~

~Until one day

The Sands of Time~

~Will grant my pray

and ease my mind~

Out Of Hell

~Out of Hell

swarmed a Ghostly Force~

~A Fiery Swell

of the Mighty Blackhorse~

~On each their Backs 

Brave Troopers Rode~

~Eyes of Black

a Force be Told~

~In each their Hand

they wield the Sword~

~And on Command

the Fire Soared~

~Defeat us Not

that was their Cry~

~The Devil’s Lot

your Souls shall Lie~

~Your Hell on Earth

has come to Be~

~The Blackhorse Hurls

your Destiny~

~With each the Kill

imbued them Strength~

~The Killing Field

was long of Length~

~Their Hooves were Steel

the ground was Red~

~A Blood’s Ordeal

the Enemy’s Dead~

~The Odds Against

One Hundred to One~

~By Battle’s End

the Deed was Done~

~Out of Hell

came a Ghostly Force~

~They served us Well

the Mighty Blackhorse~

~Don’t tread on Us

they’ll hunt you Down~

~Take your Blood

and Churn the Ground~

~Defeat them Not

for you will Die~

~The Devil’s Lot

your Souls shall Lie~

Do You Feel The Soldier's Plight

~When you lay to sleep a night

do you feel the Soldier’s plight~

~Do you pray to keep him safe

around the world in every place~

~Duty Country Honors Forged

defending all he fights the War~

~Lays down his life and proud to do

for Home and Flag and yes for you~

~Hear my words and hear them well

without the Soldier we’re Doomed to Hell~
