Angel Of The Battle Poem by montana hohensee

wings of shattered arrows
legs of broken bones
arm of sword and glory arm of shield and love
fighting ever relentlessly
never losing hope
never losing trust in his fellow soldiers
never losing grip or mental stress
never losing grip of life
holding tight tighter tighter then before...
before when he was home
before when he was safe
but life presses on like water down a drain
never slowing down at the turn of the pipes
never stoping till is hits the stream
stream of the battle
he lives.....
he strives....
he breathes
the breath of victory and the breath of death
knowing that there is only one way out
he wont stop fighting
knowing there is only one way out
he needs life
but life comes at a price
the price of death
but he will not surrender...
he will not surrender till he gets victory
but he will not surrender..
no he will not surrender
because he is a soldier
because he is a knight
because he is a angel
he is a angel on the battle field
arms of guns
arms of love
arms of trust
legs of strength
legs of agility
legs of speed
wings of broken arrows
arrows shooting across the field
but he presses on
bullets skinning the floor
bullets riding the wind as death rides the field
sweeping the field
but he knows death is watching him
but he knows death is calling him
but he doesn't listen
but he doesn't even see
he dodges
he runs
he lives
he will finish the fight
he will finish the battle
he knows the victory wont come cheap
so he fights
till every last muscle strand breaks
one strand to the next
he is running dry
only adrenaline keeping him alive
he is running
getting the job he knows he has to get done.
but he might be just to late.....
