The Man. Poem by Obrie Writes

He walks with Hope
But his emotions are hollow
He believed that Life
Wanted Him alot.

He talks of honour and happiness
But his face speaks of internal breakdown.

He cowardly ran away from a war
Because he cared for Life,
Not his own Life
But for them that would cheer on,
And his love to whom his spear would be pointing.

He is a man who learnt to understand
Understand the un-understandable
At the expense of his own tears
And the world mocks his commitment.

Trustable truths
False Lies
Journeys to wait
For affection's sake
He gives in all
Without fretting out.
