Soldier

A Poem by Douglas Levi Gribbins
"

Freestyle.

"
Dear God, You made a soldier
I'll be the one still fighting when others say "It's over"
And i don't know the
Meaning of life but I was showed that
You could knock what life puts on your shoulders with your teeth or a knife.
*Beat revs up*
Knock my feet off, You're dead by a crawler
Blind me, Your note to your home is "Killed by a brawler"
I Don't offer no mercy to any fool that life dares to serve me.
I'm Psychic, Doesn't concern me cause my mind is stuck in the 30's
Turn the beat down? Get ready for a beatdown
I'm serving these clowns with three rounds of Ak-47, Peace out!
*Beat slows down*
Xavier Fox...get's his prey
"What if i....Die today?"
The cold wind kisses my skin, arms, hands frozen, 
All my left emotions held close then
I look into the light as the doors closing
If depression was water i would be soakin'
But i can't drown in it, i was born floatin'!
*Beat revs up*
As i fly to the top of the top of my world, the guitar beat drops
No more girls, controlling my earth, No more Xavier Fox
My ears are clear, I no longer feel the end coming near
The past is gone, The futures here.
Heaven made this soldier, he's coming back, but not this year.

"Heaven made this soldier, he's coming back, but not this year."

That line just MADE the poem.

Can't even think.

A lot of the best poetry is about soldiers, god and war. I like the old saying. "No non-believers in the foxholes." When death is near. People need to find peace. Nice flow of thoughts leading to the good ending. Do soldiers come back the same? No. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
