My First Sonnet

"Patriotism."

A: I was a new recruit, drafted to war.
B: I have no idea, what's bound to happen.
A: They say that, I'm to be sent somewhere far.
B: Acknowledging that, my mom was saddened.

C: Being new, in a country you don't know.
D: It gives you this feeling, as a outcast.
C: With weapons in hands for soldiers to show,
D: This is a victory that I won't last.

E: With my back against a brick wall, I glanced.
F: To seek if there is an enemy scout.
E: I slowly duck down to a laying stance,
F: To inform my men with a glorious shout.

G: Frightened. I was scared but I have to fight.
G: To show my fellow men, the way of light.
