"soilder" poems
Its funny, as I am sitting here in the back of the auditorium, listening to all my friends on stage. The song is The Nutcracker, and suddenly it all comes back. As the bass thrums in my ear and the trupet blares loudly across the audience, I remember those winter day where She would take me to The Nutcracker. Two young girls in tow, She would cart us around, another venue every year. It was grand, the high light of my season. I could watch women with long limber legs and men in their toy soilder costumes, prance gracfully across the stage in time with th music. As I sat in that darkened auditorium it all came back to me. She used to take me to see this, to listen to this music. I had the urge to laugh madly, and cry out in anguish. Its a funny thing how precious things become long after they have ended. When the memory still stands while the erson fades. In that darkened auditorium I felt a pang of sickening nostaligia and longing. For She is dead and I am still here, and now I have no one to take me to the Nutcracker

There Are Three Movements In The Nutcracker
Become my the reason I retaliate against this Crazy world Where guns and violence are My protection And love is my weakness. I am broken by the daily Sickness That runs in my veins Causing me to change Each stupid day. Become my soilder That opens my heart Which bears much evil, Including the sins of my ancestry. Your the only one I can trust As I dwindle from my sanity Because I am a devil That needs redemption.

heart: THAT IS IT! THAT IS IT! ENOUGH I SAY! IT STOPS NOW! THE LINE IS HERE! I DRAW IT IN THIS STEEL FLOOR! NO PASSING THE LINE! brain: we've been floating for 5 hours. Do you want to go back? Heart: FLOATING?!? I'LL TELL OF WHAT FLOATING IS! Never more can a seed bear stem if it has no subsidence to sustain it's sacred geometry! The growth of one that is physical is the same as one that is emotional! Brain: .. so yes, when an apple is ripe it volunteers it's nutrients. When a woman is ready she will open her heart, yes? Heart: AN APPLE CAN HEAR ITSELF BEING EATEN! WHAT OR WHOM WOULD INDULGE IN SUCH A SOUND?! brain: a man gives a woman his trust, just like a woman gives her trust to a man. Who would want that thrown in their face? Heart: are you saying an apple can be compared to a human in this sense then? Brain: apples are inanimate and without emotions heart. Heart:........does that mean they want to hear themselves being ATE!?! brain: it's science. Just because a tree is technically alive, doesn't mean it perceives it. Heart: ENOUGH! This time is different brain. If a human doesn't want to be hurt why should the apple be hurt. Brain: apples don't have nerves heart. Heart: so what?! You're saying they can HEAR themselves being chewed and it isn't painful????!!!! Brain: ....... yes.... Heart: ..ya?... hahaha? Why. Brain: I don't truly know. Heart: HA!! then HOW?!?! Brain: science. Heart:..............I forgot what I was talking about. Brain: she dumped you. You did your best. Even to give her a pat on the back although you wanted to give her a talk of a century.  You let her go because you love her. She didn't feel the same at the end of the day, even if she did at the beginning. She is complex, and causes pain suddenly to avoid pain long term. You are a soilder. And would rather take the pain to what ever end to get to what you are trying to believe. You believe in love so much that it isn't tolerated when you get broken again. Because of your intention. And you know what? Your intention shows. Because instead of showing your pain to her, you wished her well, like a bad *** Then came home, got drunk, destroyed your bedroom, and started talking to me, looking for sympathy... but you should know me by now. You are so refreshing heart. I can't remember if I've ever felt a thing. But out of all my knowledge, I'm still unsure as to if you have a mind of your own or not. Heart: and what gives you this authority over me? Huh? Brain: 42 Heart:....................so you THINK you're all that eh????? Brain: I know buddy. How do you FEEL? heart: D*MNIT BRAIN!!!!

Imagine a world without terror outer and inner, sans famine of food and water, where every soul is well-sated; a world sans sickness and disease, not by the cord of morbidity and death held; a place where huts are mansions, every shack is a castle, and each flat a grand manor; where the roads are built with pure gold and the bridges with resplendent diamond; where the day does not change in colour, except when full moon in its full array once in a month has its  own display. I mean a planet steeping in love unfeigned, bristling with true hospitality of the soul; a world bereft of danger, and of every mind-and-heart breaker; a world with the similitude of the garden of Eden, hung on the shoulders of harmony-- where man at another cove's lovely dove will not leer, where there are no split and divorce. The genre, stuff of life where one's pigmentation is not the cardinal, but the inner essence. A sort of society where ****** Hussein and Laden-like fellows and all their coterie of killers do not have a lair of habitation, i refer; where besetting sin has no confederacy with the rotary heart and mind of man; where the leagues of villians are non-existence. An earth where conglomeration of wicked cliques is non-operational: where everyone be holy--no child soilder, nor forced labour; where women are not ravaged in cruelty of acts, and is void of conflict and war. Such a place "the world" is not called but "heaven: governed by the Almighty Lord.

HEROES
I feel unlike everyone else But I know I'm not the only one walking trough hell. I guess I; need an angel, or maybe a demon. It really just depends which one I'm feed'en. And I have them both standing on my shoulders. One giving me orders. The other is my soilder. And they both talking about my disorders. But I ignore them and blow them off like mortars. So I guess I need to find that shoulder to cry on, the one to rely on. I wouldn't care if she drove an ion or a scion. But she knows that I'm keeping my eye on her. But its really just a fight of surviver. But really its the insider myself the fight through hell. Is there anyone else?

FEELINGS
"What should I be when I grow - up ?", asked a little boy . "A baseball player ? A life-gaurd ? What ,what ,what?",he thought. "Mother what should I be?",he asked his mother. His mother replyed ,"Be what you want to be , it doesn't matter as long as you love it!" He knew mother was right. "In a few years I'm going to be a soilder, to serve my country,thank you mother!" He grew up and became a soilder.

What To Be , What To Be .
A splash of money These notes I hold pay for my dreams A devotion of forgotten past The lost sorrows A soilder of truth The guitar we play produces the streams A light that is aglow The embraced morrows A heart alive embers As the saxophone tenors strike the ribs A symphony of life The future we swallow A mind aroused As the didgeridoo flutters A wind of love In the sound of the sparrow

Soldier of Truth
She waits for him to call her But the phone just doesn't ring A knock on the door, shatters her soul From the heartache that it brings There stands two men in uniform They ask her to be seated Her heart weighs heavy with sorrow Her hopes dreams depleated They tell the woman, "He's not dead, He's only missing in action" But for a soilder in Afghanistan This brought her no satisfaction This was his second tour of duty And was schelduled to get a leave This news that her husband was missing Was impossible to believe She's heard about the horrible things They do to a captured G.I. She falls to the floor in a puddle of tears As the woman begins to cry Three weeks later, and still no news She's numb, for there's no more tears She hears a knock, for the second time Could this be her deepest fears? Once again two men stand in uniform As her heart begins to bleed Then suddenly, a third man appears For her husband had finally been freed This poem was written in honor Of the soilders who keep us free And we should never take for granted This thing called Liberty

If I knew my life’s purpose what’s in store? what if is the question can I ask one more? If I knew what I was meant to do I wouldnt waste time If all I could fit everything I want to say In one line I wouldn’t waste so much paper save one tree at a time. what if I wasn’t born in India And I wasn’t color blind I was racist eradicating natives, What if I could read people’s mind know their true motives What if Gandhi was a soilder Rather than a messenger of peace what if british raj continued we trying find the missing piece, What if success wasn’t measured by money in your bank or the car you drove, but by how much love to and fro, What if I never came to Canada and the struggle added nothing to my character, what if I had more business sense than talent, If I had one wish and I could save the planet, what if i could tell everybody I have a nasal piercing What if we can’t let emotions overwhelm us and hold the tears in, if I wasn’t a needle in a haystack, if there was a rewind button on my life’s playback, But no regrets so how could I say that, what if love was more than a four letter word if it really meant something in today’s world not mere limited to poems writings on the greetings what if you could back it matching feelings what if I couldn’t write this just keep it in my mind and wouldn’t be labeld selfish*

Bullet sounds--- ............./ (boy) crying sounds....help me, help me.... Soildier- I'm here young one, I am here!!! Boy/ thank you sir, the bomb's are soo loud overhead in this land amongst the dead, I thought not that anyone shall hear me..... The soildier smiled as he reached out his hand!!! (Yet a strange glow illuminates from him soo unnatural to man) The soilder's appearance changed rapidly before the wartorn boys eyes.... Boy- looks up at him seeing only blindly apparel... And these words would forever shake this young ones soul!!! The words of the soildier- come unto me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest....... Boy- cries with a smile worn as a flag!!!!! At that second the young child knew he was being held by god, as he left the place of hell his spirit awoke to the lord himself!!!! As that soildier- kept on smiling.../ So gracefully!

this commandment i give unto you
Plastic cracked I seem to be falling apart The result of your tight clutch As you hold me close to your heart And I sink into your breast I can feel your hurt Today must’ve been a bad one Because the pain is so much worse But what can I do I’m just a tool A conduit And I won’t last much longer I’ve been over used Not miss handle Chip parts Just shows I’m that frail A toy But a solider still the same My mission is to comfort And even as I wither Part by part I cannot fail

Toy soilder
In my youth I was a poet. Words stitched worlds. Virtue was the currency, music was Devine. Fire ment light, not bullets in flight. And angels were children, not camo coated knights. Slowly age comes, and more of death we fear. Devils from a dessert land turn castles into ash and sand. A angel on its way. But its wings are clay. Icarus did fall, and on the way to earth. He spoke of another, a lifetime away. About what he all ways feared. You see Dante was right.there is no reason left to fight. And a quite voice whispers near about earth's heathens. "The earth is another form of hell and the angels act like demons.

soilder
We watch the parachute Angels fall Fossil demons in mud they crawl Devil carved against one's back Pierced smack crucifix in heart of flack Drawer the words of a perfect Saint Reflect a blind soilder taint Blooded fields in the help of need Wounded souls slowly bleed To stand like God with courage and pride To be killed with the fear one will hide.

Soldier Taint ( The Soldier Purgatory )
Without hesitation you sacrificed everything just to give us a better chance. It was brand new to you and you were all alone but you took it on not giving a backward glance. I won't sit here and lie, it was not a fairytale, but you did the best with what you had. My life has been an intricate web of memories, some beautiful, some confused and some just sad. You, yourself, as a child were tossed aside, saftey and love were things you never knew. You found the courage to soilder on and for us you prayed you'd make it thru. There were times when your sadness was to much to bare and it caused you to give in. Like the time we came home from school to find that you had attempted the ultimate sin. Even through all of your pain, the one thing I always knew was that you loved us more than words could say. And as I sit here now and write these words, even tho your gone, my love for you grows stronger every day.
