to remember the fallen
is not to remember how they fell
but to remember why and for what
...
Thank you all for being there
to help me when im down
Thank you for the love you showed
when my heart was filled with hate
...
Rain is falling all around
My head lays down upon the ground
Raindrops dribble down face
As my eyes stare towards outerspace
...
Flying through the stary sky
Bright lights shining in my eyes
Cars zipping past far down below
People walking by
...
Try as you might you can’t break me
Yell and scream as much as you want
I wont listen any longer
Hit me as hard as you can
...
The world around me
Is like a gold lined tomb
A Beautiful work of art
That holds hidden dangers
...
What is darkness
The forbidden unknown
The fear of blindness
A safety blanket
...
I grew up here
Here where forests lay
Unbroken by farmer’s fields
Were the sun shines brightly through the year
...
Loyalty slips around my silent brother
Guarding me from pain
Desperate to save me
...
A darkness grows inside of me
the kind you can't escape
the pain i feel
will never heal
...
you left us for another guy
you never gave a reason why
you never said what we did wrong
and all we know is that your gone
...
I wish they would stop teasing me
its just not vary fair
It makes me sad and hurts a lot
but they will never know
...
Why wont they listen to me?
they know im being hurt.
Why wont they help me?
Do they even care.
...
Do you hear me when I cry at night
Do you hear me when I scream
Do you hear me when I plead with you
Do you even know what I mean
...
I see you at the front of the room dressed in your finest
You look so peaceful with your family gathered around you
...
It is in the small things we see it
A spider in the corner
A hairy monster on the prowl
Lighting on a dark night
...
To say goodbye
Is not to acknowledge the end
But merely to accept the beginning
To not only take the first step
...
Most of the time I like to write about very sad or very dark feelings, they just appeal to me, If I sit down and try to write most of the time it doesn't work but if I'm in the right mood the words just flow nice and steady, Think of it like a mood controlled writers block. the poems that I write depend on how I feel at that particular moment. One thing i ask is that if you do go on to read any of my poems please leave a comment or at least a rating I will always welcome constructive criticism.)
To Remember The Fallen
to remember the fallen
is not to remember how they fell
but to remember why and for what
to remember the fallen
is not only to remember their actions
but to remember the dream for which they fought
to remember the fallen
is not to remember how they fought
but to remember who they fought for
to remember the fallen
is to remember their reason
to remember their dreams
and to remember those they fought to save
to remember the fallen
we continue their fight
we carry their dreams
and we finish what they start
