Crouched - in a hole, lone;
death bullets circle his home.
Child, stranger to calm.
Fear - a common foe,
That visits with every shot.
Trapped, nowhere to go.
Panic - never far,
Unease is all that greets him.
Nothing left but scars.
Home; this snow filled trench
Olfactory overload
Deaths coppery stench
Battlefield - on the edge,
Ready to step forth
Take a leap over the ledge.
Dreams - are all he has,
Where innocence is not dead,
and blood is not shed.
