New soldier poem

[Woeler]

I wrote a new one, because I got inspired

A human life so far away
A life as dark and dull as gray
Crawling through the sand so hot
It would only take one shot
For this life to vanish forever
But the time we care is almost never
Play your games there back at home
Over who conquers the political throne
When they say my name you say: Who?
But I am supposed to die for you
Once the blood and sand will be one
And all my life will soon be gone
The highest price I have to pay
For you to live another day
Now you can take another breath
But who will care about my death?
