This poem is very beautiful. I loved in this one how you pinpointed the wording of the leader and stayed in his perspective while doing so. Then in the other lines you seemed to do an inner monologue or it had a diary feeling to it. Very unique though. The poem itself was lovely because this person or leader was teachinh you how to fight or about life by using your heart and soul to do it. Your poetry honestly needs to be heard your words are so touching. I love all of your poems because they tell a story within the story. Beautiful!
