I Am Poem For Soldier



I am the stethoscope to the beating of your heart
I wonder if your heart will stop
I hear the wind stop
I see the soldiers fall
I want to beat death
I am the stethoscope to the beating of your heart

I pretend to be like a superman
I feel the coldness of your skin
I touch the hardness of your bones
I worry I can't help in time
I cry for the dead
I am the stethoscope to the beating of your heart

I understand I am one person
I say keep fighting for your life
I dream of the birds flying towards heaven
I try everything I can to keep you in this world
I hope I did not have my own kriptonite
I am the stethoscope to the beating of your heart

I Am Poem


I AM

I am the key to the locked chest
I wonder why people always try to open the chest
I hear the machines drilling
I see the people trying
I want it to stop
I am the key to the locked chest

I pretend that people mind their own business
I fell mad that they keep they never stop
I touch the chest to close it harder
I worry they might get in
I cry to make them stop
I am the key to the locked chest

I understand that they are just curious
I say the curiosity killed the cat
I dream for all this to end
I try to understand them
I hope the chest never opens
I am the key to the locked chest
