This good soldier’s in a war <br />A war that is not his to fight <br />And he don’t want to anymore. <br /> <br />This good soldier’s lost what’s right <br />Trapped in war, nowhere to go <br />Oh, listen to his painful plight! <br /> <br />This good soldier’s scars do show <br />Of past wounds that haunt his soul <br />From battlefields since unfit to sow. <br /> <br />This good soldier plays his role <br />From his fate he cannot run <br />But these long years did take their toll. <br /> <br />This good soldier’s finally done <br />No more of war, he closed the door, <br />On the field he buried his gun.<br /><br />Jason Daniels<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-good-soldier/
