"dauntlessness" poems - Hello Poetry

My great grandfather stood on the sixth of June Nineteen forty four hoping to return home soon. A non-wavering ball at the pit of his belly Told him constantly that he was not ready. He feared for his life, his safety, his wife; Being stood at home holding a bread knife, Making sandwiches with that same non wavering ball Hidden tidily away for the safety of them all. His children knew he was on a boat Being so brave that they could gloat About how their dad was marching around, Saving innocent people n that stolen ground. But what they didn't know quite then Was how his life very well may soon end. Fighting with hundreds of thousands of worries soldiers On five thousand ships not nearly as strong as boulders. For the day he fought with many men Against not all Axis; only ten Thousand but still quite a few Because he knew so much justice was overdue. People back back at home saw only weeks before Large green vehicles passing by their door. The children wondered and parents knew why, But not as much as the soldiers about to pass by. The soldiers said "Don't fear for me, I'll be back home so soon you wont miss me!" My great grandfather said the exact same thing To his wife, his kids, although not willing. Of the three thousand that died on that day alone, My great grandfather was lucky to be one Of my family to come home life intact. I am just grateful that God had his back. For all of those that did die on that day The memory of their bravery will never go away. we will always cherish the thought of their fearlessness, Their courage, determination and dauntlessness.

D-Day's path

My great grandfather stood on the sixth of June Nineteen forty four hoping to return home soon. A non-wavering ball at the pit of his belly Told him constantly that he was not ready. He feared for his life, his safety, his wife; Being stood at home holding a bread knife, Making sandwiches with that same non wavering ball Hidden tidily away for the safety of them all. His children knew he was on a boat Being so brave that they could gloat About how their dad was marching around, Saving innocent people n that stolen ground. But what they didn't know quite then Was how his life very well may soon end. Fighting with hundreds of thousands of worries soldiers On five thousand ships not nearly as strong as boulders. For the day he fought with many men Against not all Axis; only ten Thousand but still quite a few Because he knew so much justice was overdue. People back back at home saw only weeks before Large green vehicles passing by their door. The children wondered and parents knew why, But not as much as the soldiers about to pass by. The soldiers said "Don't fear for me, I'll be back home so soon you wont miss me!" My great grandfather said the exact same thing To his wife, his kids, although not willing. Of the three thousand that died on that day alone, My great grandfather was lucky to be one Of my family to come home life intact. I am just grateful that God had his back. For all of those that did die on that day The memory of their bravery will never go away. we will always cherish the thought of their fearlessness, Their courage, determination and dauntlessness.

Beyond my existence, they spoke. Inscrutable of my mind to understand. Within their dauntlessness, I realized; I have been incapacitate word by word. I felt the agony of my emotions. I hindered my pride of being sturdy. The depression empowered my strength. The glint from my eyes turned into broken crystals. The bright blue skies are now somber. Earth's flowers and crops withered. All the lands have fissured. Every river had bifurcate into multiple streams. Generally, I am known as someone strong. I am capable with any misery. But now, all my journals have faded blank; Thus, I will await a new chapter. I am going to disregard my past. I will mold in my hands a new and better future. I will make the skies blue and the plants alive, once again. I will be strong.

Room turns Static sounds Face burns Back rounds Surviving, is all this is Legs wobbling Black out Mouth mumbling Stomach, not proud Living no life, trapped in these four walls No eating No drinking No sleeping No caring Even when left, still captured within these four walls Loneliness Hopelessness The only way out is through past experiences Blades Flames Lids Papers Going through this, again, alone Helplessness Dauntlessness So shall it end abandoned, neglected, isolated Scared Relieved Prepared Human connection was all that was needed Key in ignition Car in garage So if someone you love has this look in their eyes Slowly drifting to sleep Slowly, a smile, spreads across Fumes circle Air's gone Make sure they are comforted Four walls cave in Roof collapses Doors blow out Save them before they come to this state Body still At peace Before they even think of such things Asleep, forever Serenity

Dauntlessness may be indicative of strangest courage Who shall say; those rushing to battle? Oblivious youth prodded off like blank beef cattle Dare I dispel bravest image; hero for time and peerage No mother wants her son minced, poured into porridge Good intention don't be blinded by noble cause Nobility see no ill harm in poor's sacrifice Do they offer their own; O when will it suffice? To abandon war, to give thought, to give pause Why be meat within richest men's jaws? Let heroism gain spirit of more peaceful prowess Join broad-minded, leave dull herd Who directs minds in this theater of absurd? Corporations and government alliances boundless Don't be a cow and don't find yourself powerless

Dispel An Image Of Courage

Dauntlessness may be indicative of strangest courage Who shall say; those rushing to battle? Oblivious youth prodded off like blank beef cattle Dare I dispel bravest image; hero for time and peerage No mother wants her son minced, poured into porridge Good intention don't be blinded by noble cause Nobility see no ill harm in poor's sacrifice Do they offer their own; O when will it suffice? To abandon war, to give thought, to give pause Why be meat within richest men's jaws? Let heroism gain spirit of more peaceful prowess Join broad-minded, leave dull herd Who directs minds in this theater of absurd? Corporations and government alliances boundless Don't be a cow and don't find yourself powerless

one of these days I will try to see without being obtrusive I will try to breathe without much heaviness I will try to hear without being unheard I will go along with much steadiness the irreplaceable is never to be forgotten almost impossible to take back as the grateful recipient the irreplaceable is never to be forgotten almost possible to give back to soon-to-be recipients one of those days I will speak with assurance I will feel with dauntlessness I will think with resourcefulness

: Do not rush love. Do not fall head over heels with someone who's only going to lust over your body, makes you question your worth, and play stupid games with you. Because you deserve someone who will love you for your intellect, the way you speak with substance, your dauntlessness and at the same time your gentleness, kindness, and mannerisms. someone who's going to appreciate both your coldness and your warmth. Someone who values the traits that makes you who you are, not just the traits that benefits them.

A gentle prompt

Because you deserve someone who will love you for your intellect, the way you speak with substance, your dauntlessness and at the same time your gentleness, kindness, and mannerisms. someone who's going to appreciate both your coldness and your warmth.
