bet you didn't think you'd get something that'd stick
You plunged it in to ease the pain
the poison spread throughout your veins
Your troubles eased for a little while
but when they found you, you were vomiting bile
the damage was done and now the light beckons...
I hold you close, I hold you near
I look into your eyes and I all see is fear
Another soldier fallen; the henchmen have come
I whisper in your ear---you shouldn't have been the one....

the damage was done and now the light beckons...

I look into your eyes and I all see is fear
Another soldier fallen; the henchmen have come
I whisper in your ear---you shouldn't have been the one....

WOW
You covered most all feelings in this poem. Anger,love,pain,frustration.
The only thing notcovered is happiness and that would have been impossible in this situtation. Great poem your emotions jumped out at me.

A tough subject to write about ... but I think the thing I admire most about it, is the fact that you pull no punches ... you don't beat around the bush ... you don't dress it up or try to glamorize it. I like that.

This was really gut wrenching to me. It brought tears to my eyes as I can relate to it very much. Very strong emotion and conveyed very well. Great piece of work. I don't know what else to say except that again I think it is a great poem and it still has me thinking about some very similar occurrences in my lifetime and I think I want to cry now. Sooo heartfelt.
