Little Solider

together with our broken hearts a little life within our hands and heavy burdens on our backs you and i, we used to laugh together, when the rain would fall and when it seemed and felt like all and everything was going wrong you and i, we used to cry together, we used to play and pull the strings of life away and then back to us again you and i, we were one little soldier on the guard let me stand by you hold on tightly to my hand you know my love is true i will walk you home tonight dont cry, everything's alright but life's a cruel and painful game and things are so quick to change and it feels so hard and strange to go on without you i feel so lone and lost inside long nights i have cried and cried please tell me how can i go on without you its so hard to believe you're no longer here by me and i have tried everything but i cant go on without you and yet these days carry on and before long a year has gone ill wake up to another dawn my friend, without you little soldier on the guard let me stand by you hold on tightly to my hand you know my love is true and if somehow we come to part you'll always be within my heart little soldier, my dear friend 11 years since you've been dead i watch these seasons come and go in my memories you live on

The emotions in this piece are obviously heartfelt and genuinely expressed... the rhymes are effective and the form is excellent. Judging from where you live you have clearly experienced much more travesty and injustice than I could ever know... BRAVO to you for your honesty and courage. Best wishes, Keith
