Soldier

A man so brave

A man so determined

Determined to fight for people he will never meet

And not to have any recognition for what he has done

But a soldier knows no recognition

He doesn't fight for popularity

He fights for his country and the safety of his family

A soldier doesn't mean someone who never gets scared or worried!

A soldier means fighting for life, whether the life is yours, mine, or theirs

Soldiers get scared

More scared than you can imagine

But trained to fight through and not to look back

A soldier is a Hero!

A Hero whom starts as a single being!!

I agree with you 100% percent. Soldiers are heroes because they fight for the love of their own people. This is a very good write, and you seemed to have the ability to show your emotions in a short stanza. However, the poem itself is a little choppy. The sentences are too short and some of it feels like an incomplete thought. Yet, you can fix it very easily by just editing a few sentences. Overall, you truly have the ability to become a great writer.

Well said. I soldiers need our prays to keep them strong and brave. Only wished the world would learn, war kills, it won't save humanity. Good write.
