My soul made of fire, my heart of stone
I have no pain; ignoring all that I feel
with bones of iron and nerves of steel
This is what I portray, fooling you all
My emotions so strong, my defenses so tall
but inside I am weak, having unsettled war
not knowing why I battle or what this is for
This war is unending, and isn't new
no shots are heard but damage is true
What is going on here, what is this for
I'm a Lone Soldier in a private war [comments] => 6 [counter] => 472 [topic] => 61 [informant] => Gunnman [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

The Lone Soldier

I have no pain; ignoring all that I feel

My emotions so strong, my defenses so tall
but inside I am weak, having unsettled war
not knowing why I battle or what this is for
This war is unending, and isn't new
no shots are heard but damage is true
What is going on here, what is this for
I'm a Lone Soldier in a private war

You are the only one who can stop that war, but sometimes pride prevents us from doing that. I talk from experience. I'm still going through that war and I know exactly what I need to do to stop it, yet I don't do a thing, crazy hey!

Loevd this flo, true words and true emotion.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
