Original Poem Series - Fading photo

Fading photo

The battleground lay,

Scattered with men

Like a field of dull ridged leaves.

The hollow, flaky,

Forgotten bodies

Stain the lifeless ground.

Killer clouds and flying bullets

Have swiped their lives away.

Many lay

Clutching their necks,

Searching

For God, for help



This is my story,

My frozen story

That will eventually

Fade away.

The soldiers will haze

And the massacre ground will pale.

But all should pass on

me spiritually

to your children.

And all should keep my forever message;

Remembering is a must,

Remembering is a responsibility.
