It is better to live on your feet than die on your knees.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
What I hate most
is the sick thought of you.

I enlisted in war,
I fought the fight,
Die my soul may,
but to hell you just might.

The sick thought of you,
What I hate the most,
The demons I've delt,
especially your ghost.

My dreams you've haunted,
the sleep I've lost.
My skin is thinning,
my body's great cost.

Bruises on my arms,
the result of your hand.
My spirit is dying,
but our souls are damned.

The author's comments:
I wrote this piece because I wanted to express the hurt and toll that love and relationships have taken on my emotions and my body. I DID write this on Valentine's Day, which I think is a very overrated "holiday." Despite what this poem screams, I am a very loving and caring person. I just want everyone to know that this is the pain I feel inside, nit what I show in my actions.
