I slowly become what I hate the most
A shadow of war, fear, and pain
Never looking back at what I’ve slain

I ride on my horse once pure white
Whitened away in what was once might
My old fingers clutch my banner pale
This lets me know I will one day fail

I long for peace found not even in death
The darkness calls for my last breath
I lust for war my battle cry
Those damned spears will always fly

I’m old and tiered and can no longer fight
Yet I press on with all my might
Why can’t my sword drop to the ground
And the spirits send me to where I am bound

Ghost

Tarnished and withered like a ghost
I slowly become what I hate the most
A shadow of war, fear, and pain
Never looking back at what I’ve slain

I ride on my horse once pure white
Whitened away in what was once might
My old fingers clutch my banner pale
This lets me know I will one day fail

I long for peace found not even in death
The darkness calls for my last breath
I lust for war my battle cry
Those damned spears will always fly

I’m old and tiered and can no longer fight
Yet I press on with all my might
Why can’t my sword drop to the ground
And the spirits send me to where I am bound

Pictured you upon the horse
with the sword in your hand
wanting to let it go
never to fight again.

I thought of this my friend
me walking over
and taking it from your hand
throwing it down
and say come down
you dont have to fight again.

good good write..sandy

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. Â©
