Is it a mask of resiliency they wear, in consolation's kiss, for bearing first hand the atrocities woven upon their colassal and all welcoming shoulders, or do they simply revel in the diffusion of both the glory and the sorrow, never dancing with such passion as when on the shaky foundation between the two, you hit me today; with a bullet of unveiled illusions that i had begged for months from you, in the culmination of self doubts and hopes i clung to, today's emphatic message comes, breaking the silence i was finally able to elicit from you, though another hardcore laceration forms, it will bathe me first in a dream of roses, before its aftermath will sew for me, another badge of honor to pin upon the memoirs with yet another young man's sacred scar, but along with the standing martyrs with their stiffened hands in frozen air, i won't go down so fast, as i seem to always find some swift redemption, even in the clutches of such adversity, as i never loved you so, as today, when you finally delivered your bullet of truth to me.

We're all stuck in our own muck and mire but there are times, e're brief when there is fire, but overall tis honesty admired and that's a solo rarely heard from choirs enjoying your search Poets against the war is redundant |
