Heroes Without Medals

Contributed by nobodyJQ on Friday, 7th May 2010 @ 04:15:46 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry

Give me a pen to utter that which no one
Has dared to say! Why? because the world
Ain’t a better place to live no more?

Who cares for the children running the streets?
Those living in the gutters of towns, cities. Nobody
Me not me. I am just ineffectual as their
Parents who left them
I could have done more
But do I have the guts, the will to do it?
Maybe

This is a poem to all those who have in their lives
Known nothing but the cans and bottles they pick from
To them life is in a bottle, a can
A can of life, Bottle, bottle of life
Who made them?

God? No don’t blame him, he made man
Adam and Eve. Adam the father, Eve the mother
Take care of your seeds he said
Are they doing it?

The world that is has seen fighters,
But there wrong. They are looking forward at Lincoln
Eisenhower, Kofi Annan, but they are wrong.
Look behind you. There! They are the fighters of this world

Heroes without medals, heroines without gold
Gallant leaders in their regimes
Regimes without power. But they are fighters
Not freedom fighters, like Gandhi
But fighters for life

People say they are villains, but I don’t blame them
Make a villain a friend he becomes vise versa
A person
Take care of him, give him a roof
And you’ll call him friend

The world call them names, “street kids”
But who ever called you names for being were you are
If my mind serves me right the Bible says
”we are all equal before the eyes of the Lord”
Or did I read it upside down. No I haven’t. Then somebody
Between you and me got it all wrong

They are just but people with hearts,
People who had their destiny chosen for them
A destiny so gloom and full of cans
All they need is a chance to live
A chance to survive away from the cans, bottles

Give me another moment to say it more
For I am out of ink, out of irk
For the love of my brothers and Sisters
Out there

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
