[bodytext] => Into battle he rides on a mighty stead Charging at the enemy with a full head of steam A knight, so brilliant, wearing the most magnificent armor Without nerves, he stays ever calmer Unsheathed comes his mighty blade The enemy in his sights, he has no words to say On and on he continues his charge At the enemy no matter how large His horse struck by an arrow rears up and jerks The brave knight jumps to the ground continuing on foot His shield at his front, his sword by his side Sadly, it would appear he was on the losing side Still he charges on, without a trace of fear But, on his face, forms a tear Not because of the pain he faces or his fate that awaits But because of his his family that lie behind the city gates A young and beautiful wife, and three children not even the age of ten Not ever a day in their life have they ever sinned Today however, could sadly be their last All of this confusion and disarray happening so fast Over the great hill from where they came Uncountable men, with looks all the same No time to plan or prepare No time for even a soul to care How had they not seen this coming Not even a whisper, not even a warning Many fled with their lives, leaving few to stay and fight Victory, slowly escaping their sights The few left fighting trying to spare time For all the women and children left behind For all those who committed not a single crime Though few still lied behind the city's walls Under the hot summer sun This battle had already been won Won by these invading bastards Who had come without so much as a sign or word The brave and heroic knight reached the first man Not long did the invading bastard stand Parrying, dodging, and stabbing the knight fought on Sadly, he could not keep this pace for long The blade like a hot knife through butter Went through the knights neck, who would live no longer His head detached from his body, flew through the air All his men who were to fight by his side could only stare But only for a second could the men stare For the enemy stood, surrounding them The sound loud, nearly deafening Without safety for themselves, they charged into battle ready Ready to die just as their leader had One line of men clashing and fighting with the other While beyond the city's walls people run for their lives and cover Trying to save themselves and all others Their effort would appear to be futile With all the happening, many are in denial Why did this happen, and how This fate that bestows them now The walls now, have been breached The city has now suffered defeat Yet on the brave and great warriors fight With tremendous will and might In the end it is all to much And like a striking snake comes deaths touch The last of the mighty warriors fall An army that once stood powerful and tall The attackers breach the city gate Set in stone is the citizens fate Women are raped, building are burned To no one can the people turn Men and children are made slaves Never, will they be saved A city that once stood so tall Will now crumble and fall [comments] => 1 [counter] => 264 [topic] => 68 [informant] => TheTimmy56666 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => fictional )

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. ©
