There is a shield that I carry that is made of steel.

It's suppose to help me from letting people hurt me again.

It's suppose to help me from being bombarded by my enemies with hurtful words of everyday life.

It's suppose to protect me from gaining more scars that I dare not to show anyone.

It's suppose to be my alee.

My friend, my sister, my brother, my mother, my fatther.

It's suppose to be everything that I need it to be in a time of need.

But most of all.

It's suppose to help me carry out my duties that I'm suppose to do.

Help those that need to be protected.

Help those when they need someone the most. 

Help those that don't have a shield to call their own. 

I will help them from getting more scars! 

I will help them get away from their enemies! 

I will take care of them, I will protect them!

I will be their shield!


The author's comments:

A song inspired me to write this. What I want people to get from this is that they should help others in need. Help those that don't have anyone to stick of for them, to protect them from harm. They should also shield other people that don't have a shield to call their own.

So I liked this poem. You had a couple spelling mistakes but thats ok... cause the message you put across was powerful enough to look past those. However, I'd have also used less exclamation points cause after a while they get over excessive. But yet again great poem. Keep writing.

*claps* :D very nice poem indeed. I like your ideas and how you let them flow through your words. I especially like the main idea of your poem coz we all need a shield from all the bad things in life and more importantly someone to be there for us. good job bringing across this idea!
