Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier

[tsuchi-chan]

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
Think of me not as just a piece of art
That is required to be passed by
But think of the sacrifice
The love the love the loss
Here I lie
Think of the people that I represent
Though you do not know my name
And although they do not know it
Their dreams have gone down in fame
Do not cry when you see me
For pain I do not feel
I was once a father
A son
I had a wife
But I gave it all up
To save the life
Of a million
So when you see me
Do not laugh and simply walk right by
Instead bow your head
And think of the sacrifice
The love the loss
Here I lie​

I can't believe this didn't get any comments on this Tsuchi-chan. Like I said, it's very moving and real.
I love your poems, keep it up. ^^

Yes I'm also liking your writing style and poetic depth :) This poem in particular is bold. It's a shout out to those who are willing to stand up for what they believe in and what they do, which is highly respected.

Keep it up! *thumbs up*
