![]() Yellow RibbonA Poem by Kala Benfield![]() I miss you already![]()
Hold below the
ribbon falls, off the tree and then we crawl. I hoped this day would never come. Now my fears are overrun. Your guns are loaded. The shells are cased. Ready and packed. Its almost your day. I'm nearly scared to death. Praying never to get that letter. Knowing there's a thousand more to come, obstructing the view of it getting better. I love you, is all i can say. In the end there will be nothing left, and my colors will fade to grey. Carving and sketching love in my bones. Twice written. Once loved. Perched on my high held thrown. Forever is bounded by boots, and barbed wire. Cut it short by the rifle. Bleeding through your last logics. Trending your loves losing's fire.
