The Soldier Poem by Goodenough Sakhile Dlamini

The soldier has arrived

With all the boundaries to cross

The declared war has end

Never been that easy walking in the shadows of death

Seeing nobody of your own kind

Walking armless harmless

The soldier has arrived

While we are busy remincing his heart attacked

He kicks the guns is lost

He had lost he way back

But knowing where he is going

Shortcuts are safer when you are armed.

The soldier has arrived

Not knowing what the world has to give...

Not knowing what to expert
