Poetry by Kristi

== Falter ==
To fail, to fall, to falter.
To lag, to crash, to burn.
To feel the wind in your hair, or to feel the coals burning beneath your feet?
I want to live, not just survive.
To fail, to fall, to falter.
To fall beneath the bitter cutthroats,
To feel the blood hitting the floor, fresh from stained wounds?
I'm an angel with broken wings,
An angel with a shotgun,
And I want to live - not just survive.
I don't care if Heaven won't take me back,
I'm a soldier, fighting til this war's won.
To fall, to crash, to bleed, to hold,
To dare, to breath, to stop the blood staining linen?
