I have stood the vigil
since the dawn of us
and will still stand it
when the last has retired.
We only wanted… one.
One more breath
one more touch
one more smell
one more note
one more….
But we didn’t get it.
We decided you were worth
more then the one
touch
note
smell
breath.
So we gave it to you.
What have you done with it?
The same thing we did.
You spent it. And we
are glad you did!
Sacrifice is done for love
out of love. Love for you
for each other
for our home, for the way
we were taught and the
way we wish to go on
teaching.
It is time to for us to find
another way. We must find it
together. There is no other way.
What happened to our sense of humor?
I have been looking for it
and I can’t seem to find
where you guys have hidden it.
The stars are only a step away
if we would only decide
to stop shooting each other
in the foot.
