War Wolfe X - Yours Truly

My dearest
I write to you
From the trenches
On the front lines
The past few months
I have marched many miles
An indecisive
Amount of time
I have watched friends die
I have seen foes
Laid face first
Down in the dirt
And I long forgot the feeling
Of grass or the feeling
Of your touch
Which is worse
I think about the times
We spent in the meadows
Just watching
Your hair in the wind
I think about our son
I think about our daughter
How I might
Never see them again
My nights are spent
Laying down in the trench
Looking up
At the Starlight
How the stars up above
Resemble your eyes
Look down
Upon me every night
My dearest I don't know
When the war will end
But I met the enemy
Face to face
Last Christmas we all decided
To lay down our arms and laugh
Even share
An embrace
They are men just like me
And all I can think
Is they have a family
Back home
That most like me
Will never see again
My dear
I am slowly losing hope
Losing hope
Losing hope
Losing hope
Yours truly
Yours truly
Yours truly
This letter I write is probably
The same as many of my comrades or foes
The suffering we have all endured we all share
We're the only ones who know
I hope I can look into your eyes once again
But they're sending us to another line
A town called Ypre another line of trench
I hope this will be the last time
Yours truly
