A Soldiers Lament
By Alexandra Holdford
Three Days have gone by
I’m hungry, tired and waiting to die
The bombs are banging everywhere you go
I don’t think this war will end, it seems so slow
I’m now in a trench standing in mud
I just heard a bomb, it landed with a thud
My best friend just died I’ll never forget
I was made to kill a German I’ll always regret.
I’m missing my loved ones so very much
I’m praying and praying they’re give us lunch
I can hear a splish splash sound
There’s mud and water all around
The water has risen up to my knees
If it turns any colder I think I might freeze
This hell hole where, it’s full of disease
Our bodies are crawling with lice and flees
The bodies and sewage that’s covers the floor
All I wish is to see my own front door
I long to be near a big warm fire
Killing Germans is not my desire
I look around my friends are dead
Then CRACK a bullet hits my head.

lol thanks rachel, to be honest the only reason i have done them all is for school essay's. cause im in set 1 its like a competition really, you have to fight for your place as there 150 pupils in our side of the year and only 30 can be in set 1!
