The shimmering ghost of a soldier
Stands in the Poppy's red glow.
His stare at once shows fear,
Shows pain,
Shows shock.
He seems to listen,
And flinch,
And fall.
He is gone.
As they are all gone.
None left to testify the horror,
That should never be forgotten.

Heartbreak
"Don't break your heart over me," he said,
"For I'm not worthy of your pain..."
But he was my first love,
Taken too early,
And the pain still fresh in my mind.
22 his age.
22 the years that have passed.

When love...
When love begins,
Anything we try.
When love stalls,
We stagnate by and by.
When love fails,
Then it's time to cry...
