Remembrance Poem by Doom & Gloom

Remembrance

Rating: 2.8


I gazed upon this lifeless wretch
Through watered eyes and gagging stench
Amidst the bodies of his friends
Left bloodied, broken in a trench
I gazed upon this murdered man
Left to rot inside a ditch
Far from home in foreign lands
Where buzzard’s craw and bodies twitch
I gazed upon this scene from hell
The corpses floating in the mud
A tragic tale for me to tell
Scribed in my dear comrades blood

My heart is heavy with sadness, i could cry. We have to do something to make this world a beautiful place to live in. Your poem clearly depicts cruelty of some people, and it should be the opposite, Kindness! .How i am touched by this.you are very talented, and for this, i salute you! Your poems are simple, and i love the way you present it..You deserve a warm applause!
