No One Sees Me Anymore

Poem About War Vets

"No One Sees Me Anymore"


No one now remains to see
all the glory of my deeds
sitting now with shawl on knees
no one seems to feel my needs.

Faded eyes and crooked hands
worn from wars in foreign lands.
memories from that desert sand
unforgiving firebrands.

I served long and I served well
in a place I thought was hell
I had to cry and say farewell,
there was no tolling of church bells.

I rolled today in a great parade
with neat young men in bright brigades
and soldiers from long past decades
who proudly marched with shinning blades.

All for freedom this was done
those midnight raids and bombing runs
the fight was hard, but when we'd won
we all laid down our fighting guns.

Home now safe, and all secure
hoping freedom will endure.
For friendship now my eyes implore,
but no one sees me anymore.
