Diary of a Soldier part I

All it takes is one...

15th of January, the year of our Lord 1429 I have seen much during my 10 years in the French army, but most of all I have seen death. My comrades are getting fewer and fewer as they fall to the British blades and bows. It is sad to realise that my oldest...

To Struggle

Why struggle?

Why resist,When I am clay in your hands to mould?You forge my shape. Why hope,When tears elicit no pity or mercy?You are cold to me. Why try,When all the ways out are closed off?You hold all the keys. Why play,When it always plays out the same way?You win...

Maria's Chance To Celebrate

Whoever said girls like her never amounted to anything never met Maria...or her daughter Rose...

Maria would never amount to anything. Girls like her never did. It wasn’t like she really had any choices, that’s just the way things were and everybody with any sense knew it. To think otherwise would be mere folly. Girls in her part of town never amount...

Faith

My one and only attempt at a religious poem...not sure where this came from...

Faith, it’s a beautiful thing,That little word with the special ring,It’s faith in the things I cannot see,Like knowing my God is always with me,Faith that everything will turn out alright,That my days of darkness will lead into light,Faith that Jesus wil...

Life Is But A Journey

About a guy who loves his wife so much, his only concern is her happiness after he's gone...

You know that I must leave you,The end is surely near,We both knew this day would come,Please don't shed a tear.Life is but a journey,Beginning with our birth,I'd like to think it continues on,After we leave this earth.But I do have one big fear,And it's...

Feedback is welcome."Erase You" by Lydia Kiei Lynne (C) 2010You said, abandonment, there was no chance.No chance of you leaving me,Said our souls had been bound since we were infants.But now I look around, and you're the one I don't see.I want to erase yo...

HOPE - ONE SHOT-

Hope keeps us alive, running on...

Hope. Hope really was a wonderful thing; it could keep even the most browbeaten spirit up and running for hours, just to get to that warm golden glow at the end of the tunnel. Hope is a delicate balance of trust, persuasion of one’s self and pure, untaint...
