INNER CRIES
Paralyzed cries. within
stored, reviewed again and again
controlled by the demons of war's past
muddied in trenches after each blast
A living Hell, memories trapped inside
much better off are those who died
they have escaped the demons grip
as many more must continue this trip
A road going nowhere, an endless view
as blood red skies enclose on you
chemicals inhaled so long ago
now invading, killing your inner soul
An unsteady road traveled each day
war torn memories for which they pay
flashback experiences just not fair
full recovery... is very rare
Reaching out for a helping hand
hoping others will understand
these brave men paying the price
the wars of man have taken their life
