*** The Battle Cry *** This lost and useless battle Has never yet begun But truth is not past noticing, To know this war can not be won... The solider's heart is breaking, Before ripeness claims its toll... Dreary eyes with river flowing, And fists blood-stained the wall... A cry of grief escapes the chords, Exclaiming lament where love closed doors.... Fierce strength enclasped a hopeless fight, for the seeker in its neverending flight.... Dark shadows of immeasurable pain... Now lays to rest in the deep domain... For a cause of a useless battle, lost, A lasting love, unshared..... remains. --------------------------------------------------- Once I fell in love but I was never even in the position to fight for that love. Thus....this poem. |

If love is a two way feeling - should it have to be fought for to begin with? Just a thought. Lovely poem. Michael |

Truly wonderful and just enough rythm. I loved it very much. "True love is like a ghost; everybody talks about it but few have seen it." La Rochefoucauld |

the poem was very well written. smooth flow, great imagery. i liked it. but i have to agree with micheal. love that is true is not won through battle. |
