Horrible Leader; Perfect Allie

by SilentSuicide   May 18, 2008


Don't leave the war, hanging on my shoulders
I'd end up loosing it horribly in the end.
Don't give me a gun, to have me alone shoot another.
Ill only shoot if you need my hand to lend.

I'm a horrible leader, i cannot lead into war.
If you want to win don't have me start.
But if your in danger, need me to help
Ill be there faster then the beats in your heart.

Yes, i cannot lead, and yes i cannot fight alone.
But those who lead need an Allie who's strong.
Someone to help those who where to fall.
The horrible leader but a perfect Allie all along

It's a true leader who knows the way.
but its a leader who which cannot defend.
its a leader, born to lead everyday.
But its a true leader who needs an Allie in the end.

When you fall, you cannot go any longer.
Nothing else to do but silently cry.
I cant lead you but i can get you stronger.
and save you from fear, your fear to die.

    I'd say we need more allies than leaders...
    i didn't quite understand if you really meant "war" in literal terms or used it as a metaphor....
    either way (lol), i find the poem really nice...
    I think this is the first poem i read with a tradicional rhyme scheme... so i can really criticize your formal requirements... (YES! no...wait...there's nothing to criticize...^^)
    your rhyme scheme is intersting...(abcb...two rhyming verses and two non-rhyming verses...) and the flow is really nice...

    it will probably seem in my latest comments that i am a "formal requirements freak", yet i can promise you i am not...
    i only think the theme itself is something more personal and that we can't criticize each others emotions and personal opinions...because we are all different and have different ways of expressing ourselves...

    5/5
