Shoot the hands that carry our message Which read the bloodshed of our fallen O how the doves bathe in the ink of war and arise anew with purpose The heroes of the sky hand in their limbs in return for the glory that bursts from the battlefield Your delicate feathers must blacken at the tips before youβre recognized as the messenger O winged angel, Fly away, Fly away Look upon the world of destruction And be lucky to serve on the winning team O forgotten heroes, claim your medal from the ashes of the fire and lay there to rest To grow fat by chipping away at scraps till your stature is reborn May they shoo away your dignity from the homes that wrote our letters And how they shed hollow tears when they finally meet your eyes Their pride lives forever in the hearts of lost fighters O glorious phoenix, hold your ribbon tight, when you cross the other side
This is, what I feel, one of my best poems, though it's a lot shorter than my other ones. But I still like this one the most.
