![]() The Lone SoldierA Poem by grumpyhrt![]() A poem written about a soldier who thinks hes unworthy because of his deeds in the war but angels see his heart for what it is.![]() ![]() A soldier sits by the Sea reflecting on the things hes done hes been here since before the rising Sun- Because memories die hard and the fire burns inside a lonely, broken man shattered and tired- He thinks of all the choices that hes had to make were they right or wrong yet to give or take- He lives inside a prison a hell made all his own from all the atrocities that he thinks hes sown- But Angels see his heart and know the man inside both the bad and the good the part he tries to hide- Angels know the rose has many thorns though beautiful it may be it carries the blood of many and this only Angels see- The soldier finally turned and looked towards the sky the tears were gently falling for beyond the Sun and Stars he at last heard his Angel calling. © 2012 grumpyhrt |
