In Memory Of Jake

In Memory Of Jake

By: Paige Collins

Authors Note: This is a poem. Please don't be mean. I was reading something…meaness. This poem also has 37 lines to it, so it is long.

Now I am in war,

Death in near,

Coming closer,

But do not cry after I am lost,

But be strong,

And carry the battle on and on,

I must tell you before my death,

What goes on in a fight,

But listen closely,

Cause you'll hear it just once,

I am lost in sea of hate,

Knowing that death is near and so if fate,

But how does fate take em' in and rearrange,

Bring them out and they are the same,

But there are some things to know,

Before I die,

Before I go,

About the Yeerks,

Who is Visser Three you ask,

He is the only Yeerk with an body of an Andalite,

He was the one who was responsible for my death tonight,

Visser One,

In charge of all,

But not only is Visser one a Yeerk,

But also Marco's mom,

There are other species that are taken,

Like the Hork-Bajir, the Gedds, the Taxxons,

All of them in a battle,

But not on our side,

Fear grips as I slip away,

I pray the lord my soul to take,

So please carry the war on,

Now that you know what is wrong,

Please don't cry little one,

Don't cry for goodness sake,

Fight in memory of the Animorphs,

Rachel, Marco, Tobias, Cassie, Ax and me, Jake.
