Open your eyes my child,
we're on the way home.
We may not win the battle,
but you wont go down alone.

Your mother wont be forgotten,
she was taken way too soon...
But,revenge is never the answer,
a calm mind will help us bloom

We ran away from death,
and feel guilty from the fright!
But we will return for our family!
We'd rather die with a fight!

Come to arms my brothers!
Nomads, we are not.
Think about our precious lands,
or maybe you all forgot...

Well, whoever will stand with me,
clear the anger from your heart.
Blindness from rage is fatal ,
and we'd be doomed from the start.

So open your eyes my people!
We are on the way home.
We may not win this battle,
but we wont go down alone!
Well, this is a poem about people driven from their homes in a violent invasion of village, and one man tries to convince those who ran to safety to go back and fight. I hope you enjoy this.

i really love poems with rhyme and a flow with some sort of a beat.. like a song.. this is really my style... and i had a poem that goes like this... battle cries and heroes... maybe its a coincidence, it's in my gallery, Our Battlecry, Emblazoned In The Sky...
