no rest for the weary

no rest for the weary

A Poem by Michael Kerr

bleeding

as i lay here i am bleeding my commarads

lay there not died

but look to be lifeless

as if they are died

i still have time

i still have the energy

i must get up

i must fight for them or at least try

i will make my stand for them

for those of them i like

and for those i dislike i will fight

this will be my stand

as i c**k back the chamber

i aim and fire

and the first dies

now i am standing but no time to think

i must do

for if i am to save them

i must think quickly

i throw a grenade three die

screaming in pain

i jump to the wall and fire around the corner

i feel my hearts beginning to slow

i am about to die

but not yet i must not fall

now sounds and images alike begin to blur

i take a bullet to my right shoulder and then my right leg

the stinging pain begins to pump my heart again

my gun stop

click click no ammo so

i take my knife and i run towards him as he fire bullet after bullet

all going into to me

but i can no longer feel the pain

and i lung it into to him

and then rip it out

cover in my own blood and the blood of my enemy

i prey to god for more time

because most are died

and few remain

i take the enemys gun and run at there group

i hope this works

i hope i save them

tear run down my face for what i do

but if i have saved there life it will have been enough

and i kill them as i take in more bullets

i fall to my knees

and prey to god the lords payer

then i fall

and i die

nice read... but you need to edit it because you have "died" instead of "dead"...
