This Poem was written in Memory of Bonnie Lee Haywood, Sgt, Army.
One tour in Vietnam from 66-67.  Mathews, VA. 

FEELINGS 

He sits there is the darkness 
Not a sound can be made 
For if he breaks the silence 
His Life they'll surely take. 

His mind is full of worry 
His heart is full of sorrow 
He only hopes to find a way 
To make it through tomorrow. 

The noise is getting closer, 
Much to close it seems 
What happened to the life he had 
And all of his childhood dreams? 

Life is all he thinks of 
And death is all he fears 
And on his face you see the worry 
And the trace of a thousand tears. 

It cannot be forgotten, 
The things that he went through 
For he fought, not only for himself 
But also for me and you.
