Postcard
Dated 1903
Writing crammed together
Yet sweet
And sentimental

She sits
With tears in her eyes
Reading his words
As if it were yesterday

"Wishing you were here
As always, my precious flower
But soon we'll be together
As soon as this war
Is over...
This I promise you my love
Please don't cry
While I'm away
For I'll always love you
For forever and a day..."

It's all quite tragic
And still weighs upon her heart
His kisses
And soft caresses still haunt her dreams

For the day after
She read his words
He was found dead
Pierced by the bullet of death
He died for his country
And sarcified his life
But atleast she knew
He intended one day to make her his wife...

Its very good, it sort of has a double meaning now a days, it hits home for anyone who has lost someone to war, but now with battles raging overseas it relates to anyone who has a heart. Great write

AWESOME poem!!.....i cant say anything more about this 'cept that its going into the library!

Zombie

Torn are her limbs
By quiet hands that
Tug life(color) out of her.
Gnawing edges round
Into a broken(satisfying)
Shadow
