My friend, there’s a precise brutality in this…you blend physical imagery with something more internal without ever naming it outright. The result feels controlled, almost procedural, but underneath it all there’s something unresolved that keeps pressing through. That tension is what gives the piece its staying power. Powerful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

well written. Your poem revolves around the themes of pain, healing, and resilience. The imagery of physical injuries and the process of recovery reflects a broader commentary on the struggles and challenges faced in life.

There was a poet that told me that every poem I’ve ever written before is a culmination of what I write now… is every new poem our best one? This is definitely a great one

My friend, this lands quiet…but it lingers. There’s something about how stripped down it is that makes it hit even harder. Really strong. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

How things fade over time. Even memories and feelings. Entropy always wins. Good one Cryptic

For a period of my life I lived in North Queensland. This for me is an image of a \'Queenslander\' .
Feelings of nostalgia, Rik.

To me it speaks of the process of aging using the house as an analogy. Beautifully done.

Arqios, this really lands…that pull between honour and what’s actually happening, especially in that image of it all collapsing into something brutal. It doesn’t dress war up, it just shows the cost. I appreciate you putting it this plainly. Strong write, my friend..and no worries at all about YouTube…it happens. Is that your YouTube Channel? Love the video and the poem...again, great job! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Gritty, relentless, and unflinching—this one drags you through the mud of duty and blood.
The voice is mournful yet defiant, holding the raw weight of young lives caught in war’s machinery.

Again, I cannot help but have visions of the film Lord of the rings. This certainly applies to much more than that. It seems an exhortation and call to arms that might well apply to any era. Nicely written.Cryptic
