I am a little toy soldier <br />Broken and used <br />You send me to war <br />When I can barely salute. <br /> <br />They put me in battle, <br />They arm me with guns <br />Just a little toy soldier, <br />What have I done? <br /> <br />Every second I hear someone scream in fear. <br />Every 3 seconds tear, after tear. <br />Every 5 seconds I am bruised and beaten <br />This is no longer our haven. <br /> <br />I am a little toy soldier <br />Broken and used <br />You send me to war <br />When I can't even salute. <br /> <br />I am a little toy soldier, and now I am dead.<br /><br />Rose Marie Cook<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/toy-soldier-4/
