War

• Artist: xManaxSamax
• Description: This is a poem about my sister who is enlisted in
  the army. She has recently injured her spine and legs jumping
  from planes. Though she has been injured she is still enlisted and
  is due to Afghanistan soon. Her feelings about government and war collide with my own like
  the sharpest waves. Though she has gone against my beliefs and hopes...and I wish not to see her to often......though I turned my back.........I love her as I always did.

I stare through the falling rain and see you,
reaching for me. My heart is more than open
but the desert lightning seems to have split my soul.
I turn from you with one look back and walk away.
The storm has separated our veins.
