Victim-Of-Ptsd

PTSD As a veteran like those before Many of us have seen war Injuries invisible to the naked eye In our mind we ask ourselves why With all the bad that we have seen We hope this is just a bad dream Our memories won't disappear In itself this gives us fear When we were away we had each other Watching out like sister and brother But now we are home safe at last Hopefully try to forget the past Then night time falls And our minds do wonder Did i make a fatal blunder No no not I it is the thunder The bangs that go of in his head Make him hide in his bed He can not sleep it won't disappear Yes I'm sure he'll shed a tear Back in that place he once had been Reliving the events he had seen The smell the noise back in the mind Shouting screaming feeling blind Feeling lost and on his own Fear, aniexty, depression have grown But being proud and no cry for help Man up son you have your health But the mind will overcome Unless something can be done He does need help a listening ear So he can process all that he does fear He is human his mind is active For his country his life he'd give But alas many didn't make it back Back home to raise the Union Jack So to absent freinds I raise a glass I'm sure this battle is not the last Until we meet at the pearly gates Spread the word about lost mates
