STONE SOLDIERS

(PTSD)

 

To my bed of rest

... I cannot go

I am as cast from my nest

No sleep can I show

 

Many times I have tried

but some of my old memories...

they have never died...

moving like the restless breeze

 

Sleep is a fortress

seeming so sinister

that I cannot enter...

not even by its gate

 

Stone soldiers

with dead eyes of glass

guard well the gate

and will not bid me pass
