The Good Soldier

You cry burning tears Over friends lost soul He died in the battle Not so long ago Forever lost in the void You so longed to close Gather you courage You must let him go

Hello Reese, the death of our soldiers will never be forgotten. Every soldier that fall means stability of democracy. Welcome to the soupland. Ernilando

It's hard to let go, Reese. Sometimes the "burning tears" can last forever. I see you are new to this site. Welcome to Poetry Soup! Best wishes, Carolyn
