I worked as a military doctor for a while. Walter and Ralph were my best friends from that time.
Walter took his life when he could not cope
With addiction and overdosed on pain
He tried very hard but then lost all hope
Found it too hard to control and abstain
Ralph medicated depression in vain
The rope's noose disobeyed his last command
His sadness was deep and mania grand
The bullet left just a brain bloody fame
As courage granted an ultimate stand
Too close for comfort as we were the same
