Not There Yet

Not there yet

The trenches 
No mans land 
The mortars the bomb shells forever sounding
Not physically but in the heart 
The wild battle that shows that there has been a stain in the heart
A deep dark stain from battle
All the soldiers want to do in those trenches are fight for there country
And just hope they are there
At the time when they win
And there is no more slaughter there is only peace among us
