Wow, very powerful. I love it. 'favorites'.

Favorite line: "No soldier says, 'Let me die for what I don't believe in.'" It's so true. This whole poem is one of those things where we have to realize what we're doing while we're doing it. It makes you think, and that's great. Keep writing! :)

I can't decide whether you're a cynic or an idealist or both. =) Nice ideas.

So true. So very, very true... You write so accursed well. I don't know whether I should be in awe or be frustrated. But for now I'll enjoy what you have put up here. =)

this is awesome i love it! Keep it up :)

I like this. I all most kind of read every other sentence like in a whisper or something like this. Very thought provoking. Nice work.

love it: powerful. strong. true.

Really...raw. That's the only way to describe it--it's raw and it almost makes me cry. The message in this, I mean, and it's so very true even though I wish it wasn't.

'No soldier says,"Let me die for what I don't believe in""Let me die for those that I don't love."'

That really makes an impact on me. And it's sometimes as if they're saying, 'I'm going to die for what I don't believe in' and 'I'm going to die for those that I don't love'...yeah. And then sometimes there's a bit of 'I'm going to die for what I don't believe in but maybe I'll twist it around so there's a little bit I do believe in' and 'I'm going to die for those that I don't love but I'm also going to die for those I do'.

...Yeah. Lol, guess what? Your poem has inspired a whole paragraph of rambling nonsense! Rah! Anyway, just dropped in to say that I love this. Great job.

God, Jessie, everytime I read this poem, I get the shivers. Wonderful! "Love your enemy. Because they are just like you. Human." WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! Simple, yet as effective as a punch in the face! ^^

*gives a standing ovation*

Wow, I haven't read anything this profound and piercing in quite some time. So darn glad you're still making appearances.

I especially love the first several lines. The honesty and truth in them are artfully expressed and left unvarnished.

wow.. insanely true...awesome message... great job

Awesome...

I love it. so so true. wish it wasn't though.

This is just the kind of poem people should right before a war breaks out.Good Stuff!Sometimes people just forget what they really are and they pretend like there are more important things in life than peace and respect.Excellent work my friend.

Too true. Nice poem.
