Battle Torn

by David   Oct 1, 2007


Blazing shards of metal
An epic battle between
Two warring clans
The ending was blurred and unseen

Countless soldiers dead
So many more wounded
Innocent unarmed citizens,
Women and children unluckily included

Archers and cavalry
Warriors and knights
Fighting for their pride and country
Strength reaching new heights

Flaming flying arrows
Blood stained swords
Conquering and defeats
Controlled by evil hands of the lords..

    This really describes what really happens in a battle, it's not all glory and everything, it's sadness. even though this poem is really good, i think you could make it alot better if you made it longer, so that it would have more of an ending. 5/5
