#20 Last Light Lit
Up to the hill in which I see
The shiny barrels of musketry
And a waving flag, high as a tree
Along with a platoon of cavalry
To the front our men begin to press
Up to the creek, and that hilly crest
Being shot in the leg and breast
I see a hole and blood on my vest
Laying down and crying too
I close my eyes and I see you
I hear a silence, too good to be true
You whisper me a request for me to do
And my eyes open, tho covered in tears
I forgot all my troubles, forgot all my fears
Getting up, I look for my peers
I see they are routed-the enemy cheers
Rejoining my lads with utmost devotion
I hear a crackle, pop, and explosion
I fall to my knees due to the erosion
Of my body by blood in the midst of confusion
I try for the hill which is now under our control
The battle flag waves upon a tall lengthy pole
I feel bitter now, bitter and cold
My sweetheart in mind, and this she told:
Come to me, be in my arms
I miss all your comforts,
I miss all your charms
This war is terrible, gosh o' darn
Please leave it, away from that harm
A failed obligation or some thought of it,
They tossed my corpse into a dugout pit
And with many of my comrades I now sit
Going home to the last light lit.

How do I live without you I want to know How do I breathe without you If
you ever go. How do I ever, ever survive Oh, how do I live? Trisha

Many people say, "Don’t ever stay with a guy who makes you cry cause the
one who is, wont make you cry”. But I've learned that if "one night the moon
asked me. If he makes you cry so much why don’t you leave him? I would
answer...Moon, could you ever leave your sky?" Jennifer Wilburn
