Array ( [sid] => 120717 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => God's Soldier [time] => 2006-05-25 01:05:48 [hometext] => this is my first poem i ever wrote . tell me your honest opinion about it . [bodytext] => My heart is like a rock
Cold , silent , still
It feels no pain , no joy

My head is like a sword
Knowing nothing , feeling nothing Expressing nothing
It knows what I want to do but it won't Allow me to do it

I can't control my body
I try to tell my legs to stop running
But they only go faster and faster
But oh where are they running to ?
I wish I knew , but I don't , no one does Except them

I can't control my hands
I don't know how to stop them
Will they do right or wrong ?
Only they know , cause I no longer control Them

I am now nothing
A person that can't control my body
I am now my body's slave
Will I ever break these chains ?
No , they are to big to break
Only God can break these chains
I know he will , But when ?
When will he come for me ?
Only he knows the answer
As I have told you , I know nothing but God

I feel the chains getting tighter and tighter , When will this end ?
I feel no pain but I do not want a numb body !
I know deep down I can feel the pain
But I do not show it

A person is nothing without God
God is love and pain , you may ask " How can this be ? "
But only you shall know the answer , no one Else
Can you feel the chains tightening ?

I now feel pain and hatred
Why am I feeling these things ?
Cause the devil is near
I must break these chains
He runs like the wind after me
I have found the sword of light
I cut my chains and feel love again

I slash at the devil with my sword
And down he goes on his knees
Begging for his life to be spared
Why should I spare this cowardly dog ?
He knows no love , no glory , no honor
He knows only evil
But I must take him to my captain
Cause I am God's soldier [comments] => 1 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 11 [informant] => greysteel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 7 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

It is a well composed poem with depth of thought provoking verse in every stanza.
friend I liked the way you used the chain as your tool of expression.
