The screams of the wounded, the silence of the dead.

The mentality is broken, then no longer valiant

The glory first, then the falling terror

The trenches full, then the graves full

The beautiful flowers , then wilted by war.

This isn't what we want, this isn't what we wished for.

The point of this poem is to prove serving in the military is hard work but if you can push through it you'll be remembered
