Do you know what i did?

A war veterans perspective

Do you know what I did?

By:Maddy



If I stood beside you

On a subway train

Would you know who I was

And what I did?

Would you know the pain

That I felt inside and out?

Would you know that I was

A soldier that fought for your freedom?



I risked my life,

But do you even care?



My body lay on

A blood-covered hill

Surrounded by poppies

And broken bodies

I watched my best friend

Die before my eyes

I will never forget

But will you ever remember?



I risked my life,

But do you even care?
