WHY WAR?

I wrote this poem after reading Rudyard Kipling's "Boots," which captures the exhaustion and madness of war. His words stuck in my head-the rhythm, the repetition, the hopelessness. I wanted to respond to that-how even today, the same cycle continues. My poem is about realizing that war doesn't end when the fighting stops; it echoes in minds, families, and history. It's a protest, a reflection, and a question: Why do we still choose war?

The Fallen Kingdom
I never thought my life would end up like this. One second, I'm just... me. The next, I'm running for my life, caught in a world I don't understand and hunted by people I can't even make sense of. Then there's Kane. Mysterious, stubborn, and somehow the only person I can count on. He drags me into a group of survivors - people from kingdoms that were destroyed, each with their own messed-up past. Somehow, we all ended up together, trying to survive in a world that's slowly breaking apart. Nothing is safe. Every shadow hides a threat, every step could be our last. And the more I learn, the more I realize that surviving isn't just about staying alive - it's about figuring out who I can trust, what I'm capable of, and what nightmares I'm willing to face. We were going to rebuild what we'd lost. ....
English GCSE AQA: Comprehensive Analysis of the Power and Conflict Poems
I decided to make a book on all the Power and Conflict poems for the English GCSE exams. NOTE: This book's analyses are very long and wordy due to much information from different sources. Although they are segmented, some may not find too much comfortable, so I've linked main the main resources I've gotten and have attached video analyses from mrbruff, a youtuber known for analyses. Sources are from multiple websites (e.g. BBC.com, madameanglaise.wordpress.com, poemanalysis.com, shmoop.com), which I have combined to make the ultimate revision book pretty much, so please don't get angry at me for copying. Good luck ;) EDIT: Added an extra chapter with some practice questions you guys can practice.Kumpleto
The Ramblings of A Lunatic
This is a record of the thoughts in my head through the current span of my life. It is not a novel. It will have pieces of poetry and full blown rants. I hope that anyone reading this will be able to relate. And if you actually are reading this 'journal'; One word-Thanks. :) -Yet Another AspirerKumpleto

I'm not going to tell this story any other way than how it is. I say it happened exactly how it happened. No slipups, no lies, nothing. This is what happened to me.Kumpleto
Abroad
The purpose of this poetry book is one of defiance. Not to others, or anything in particular. It is against the war we wage internally, against ourselves every day. There is no bigger challenge in life than facing your thoughts, your true emotions, your feelings when you lie alone at night by yourself, cornered. We tend to postpone them, shelf them, as we grow accustomed to our daily activities, never giving ourselves a chance to evaluate ourselves. Who are we? what do we lack? what do we need? In this book, I took it upon myself to air out all of my grievances, my intimate thoughts, my happiness, my disappointments, my sadness all out in the open, for all to see. I wanted to face it all. To stare my mortality dead in the eyes, and let the lingering stare sit, I wanted to simmer the feeling of weakness, of every single type of emotion, completely digest it, and let it manifest genuinely, reading it, again and again, perfecting it, again and again, until the feeling of pain subsides. I there is anything that I want you to take from this book, is time. Yes, just a word, time. It goes by, so have not regrets, and never leave something from saying. If you are looking for a sign to remind you, to tell you parents, brothers, sisters, daughters, grandparents, wives, friends you love them? This is it...Kumpleto
Poems of a suicidal artist
"Sometimes I just want it to end, nothing can stop that thought. " but that's what I said years ago and the thought never ended, it just grew. I don't think I want help anymore, unless you're the grim reaper. if you see him, tell him I've been waiting.
We Never Know What Lies Ahead
When we made the choice to go camping, we didn't realise it would change the course of our entire lives. All we wanted was a weekend away to be teenagers, to get away from the harsh world of high school and to leave the never ending expectations of our parents. Now, you wouldn't believe how badly we want all that back. We never know what lies ahead.Kumpleto
Fallen (Undergoing editing)
I never thought it would end like this. I always thought I had a home. I always thought I had a family, but as it turns out, my past is darker than the lies they told me and the truth they kept from me.Kumpleto
Forever I Am
The war was almost over, it was evident all around me. I was being treated like royalty, yet I felt more alone then ever. I knew now that I was going to survive this war, but I didn't want to. Why would I want to live when I was the last one left? It didn't matter that the war was over, because forever I am tainted by its traumas.Kumpleto
Pain
In the war we had gone through many things. We had lost friends and maybe even family. All we know is that we had dealt with our fair share of pain.Kumpleto
