Things that only cursed see
By BoyBackFromWar
They see medals and scars
and say I should be proud.
But they haven’t seen
the things I have.
The stench of death,
when your friend is
gasping his last breath
in your arms.
I don’t know what
their dreams are made of.
I forgot it long time ago,
but I know that mine are
forever filled with shadows
and fears of the past.
Every morning starts
With a load of pain.
I can only hope that
darkness will swallow me up,
so I can finally rest…

Thank you for your service brother. Too many of us have faced our own mortality and witnessed that of our brothers. We still stand together.

The horrors of war can be stated a million times and never lose their impact. It's a lesson humanity is still struggling to learn. Thank you for writing.

Thank you… I’m starting to fear that humanity will never learn that lesson
