Sentry

A poem...as you should well know by now! :P

from JoeUser Forums
Silent, standing, still,
I’m the sentry guarding against ill.
You turn to me in time of need,
I watch and keep you freed.

I stand here,
To protect and push away fear.
I am the one who stands alone,
I defend your honor and your throne.

I wish to see you smile,
I watch you all the while.
I have no one to turn to,
But I’m the one who gets you through.

I am one of the strong,
Don’t think turning to me is wrong.
I want to be here for you,
And do all that I can do.

Pain is not my master,
I’ve gotten used to it much faster.
My friends, please don’t worry about me,
I’ll always be there for thee.

I am sad, I’ll let you know,
But don’t think I’ll ever go.
Staying here keeps me alive,
But I need someone to help me thrive.

Waiting, watching, wishing,
Always searching for that one thing.
The thing I help you obtain,
Is the only thing I’ve left to gain.

To live is to love,
Pure and white, a sacred dove.
I love many around me,
But the passion I desire, I have yet to see.

You need to cheer up!


Much easier said than done....if I could actually cheer up then I would.

How do you do it?


Emotions, feelings, ideas, thoughts, people, conflicts, abstract stuff....all these contribute to poetry. We're just able to put things in verse a lot easier than some people.
