A Selection Of My Poems

Summary:

Okay, so not really part of any fandom but I just wanted to upload some of my poetry to share with you all. I hope you don't mind.
Oh btw KMEWhitehead, is my actual name, hence why it's at the end of every poem, long with the year I wrote it xxxx

Notes:

Just to let you know, some of these are from when I was in a really dark place a few years back but I'm willing to share them in case anyone feels like they're alone in what they feel. You are not. And if you wanna talk, I have tumblr, twitter and facebook. Feel free to contact me :) xxxx

Chapter 1: An Unknown Soldier

Summary:

I came up with this one day when I read in the paper about a young soldier who had been killed in action. It inspired me to honour other soldiers who have died in the past and the present.

Chapter Text

Fight for me,

Fight, while I sit and watch you fall

Die for me,

Die, so that I am safe

Fall for me,

Fall, that way I never will

Just another soldier

In this never ending war

Just another letter home

To a broken family

You won’t get a hero’s welcome

But you will die like one

Goodbye to you

The soldier I never knew

Goodbye forever more

Let the harmony and peace

Make your sacrifice be remembered

Forever more

The life taken

To create hope and life

And end suffering to all.

(2009)
