The Last Solider

This little poem is about Zack, other then that I'm not giving anything away. Don't own FFVII. Also this poem is sad.

The Last Solider

All alone again

Laying to rest.

How were they here?

Where were they from?

Were they hurt?

Are they in pain?

Listen closely my child

And one will hear the thoughts

Of the last real solider.

Am I dieing, or am I dead?

Why is there crying?

I must be dieing,

An Angel does not cry.

Do I dare open my eyes to the light

To breathe my last breath.

Or do I continue to pretend to be locked in my eternal slumber.

I open an eye to no light but a night,

The cry,

Of my only companion.

Mourning at my upcoming departure

Have I taught them well?

I have taught of the values of honor

But there is no honor

I have taught them loyalty too

But loyalty has been lost

Then the pain hits me like a pack of wolves

Seconds to go

But I'm not ready

NO!

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying

I must leave behind, my legacy

But how, for time is ticking

But what of the legacy

There's no time left for picking

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying

My honor

His honor

Their honor

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying

Alas, my life

The last real solider

Is fading

And they're still waiting

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying

Why am I the last

Why am I all alone

For I fight with honor

Until what ever end

And this is my end

I didn't die for money

I didn't die for fame

I died for them.

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying

This is my final act

Just maybe I can set a new scene

Maybe my sword

Will carry my legacy.

With a last gasp

I grasp

And they take

As they shake

What is left of the last Solider

An empty shell

My last breath was breathed

But I feel relived

For as long as they're there

I am always there

A light breeze

And a guiding hand

In the end

I my not be the last real solider

I know I'm dieing

And they're still crying.

And that my friend

Was the last thoughts

Of the last first class.

Or was it?

For as long as the legacy lives,

Inside,

He was dead

But the other cried

And lived out both there lives.

To tell you the truth I wrote this for my honors British lit. class. Now my teacher had no clue what it was about, I think he thought it had something to do with Animal Farm. See this proves how truly obsessive I am. Oh well. Hope u liked.
