Unknown Russian Soldier

by DopePope - Libra

The water runs behind you
as you lay on those cool rocks
the land you were born in
tending the cattle and the stock
war has been here, days gone by
war is all you can remember
but now, you need to fly
those cool, grey rocks you lay on
those ones you know so dear
your house is in the distance
in your mind you can hear
your mother calling for you
but that's just in the past
she is dead, and now you too
how could this happen
what did you do?
these people you don't know
have such hatred for you
they are all around you now
you cant understand them
one chuckles, you don't know how
the group settles around you
one comes very near
he holds the cold blade against the skin
and the scream is the last you hear
its not of you, but of the man
who hates for what he's done
he spills your blood, ore' the land
all alone, no longer afraid
just lay and wait, wait, wait
darker, darker feelings of love
never again to hate, hate, hate.

Reason for writing:

    Saw something i will never forget. I am basing this one something very real which i saw. The unknown russian soldier was infact a female from the very place she was killed.
