still seeking a title

The grass wet beneath my toes

As I step into the morning sun

My dreams came true yesterday

The day you returned home

Baring scars upon your body

Deeper are the ones in your soul

The battles you have faced

Knowledge that remains to me untold

You will not speak to me of these things

You say my ears need not hear

That my soul is too gentle

To know of the blood, the agony and the fear

Just let you to look upon my face

Or speak of happy things your say

But our home was touched by this war too

Suffering loneliness the long time you were away

While you fought upon the battlefield

I fought within myself persistently

The torture of not knowing

I already know of the fear and agony

I beg you to share with me your tales

So that I may help ease your pain

I will let you weep if you must weep

Peace with yourself I wish you to gain

For though you say the battles rest behind you

Your eyes speak of the turmoil you still hold inside

Share with me my love what you feel

You do not alone in this suffering need abide
