The trench contains the dead
Buried before they died
Vacant eyes reveal the distant crosses
Their names are immortalised in Hell
I was buried too but still breathe
The chilled dark but metallic air
The blood of many others has stained
My heavy coat that hibernates no hope
It is snowing now and there are no more screaming shells
There is an eerie silence that covers the death
I cannot hear the cannons or the mad manic guns
The moon is high and I am surrounded by many shrouds
