Another Day



All in all it's just another day

As I slowly watch you fade away



The look upon your eyes

Was just a mere disguise



I thought I once knew you

Turns out reality was indeed due



I fell in love with a fallacy

Something no one else can ever see



I entrusted you with my love

Even when I acted tough



All I gave was shoved away

You walked out my lfe on that day



I came bearing roses and a card

I waited two hours in your front yard



Only to be thought of as inferior

And rip up my interior



I look at your picture one last time

Knowing that you were once mine



I look into your soul

Seeing the devil that you just love to hold



My dreams of us have turned awry

I drew X's through your eyes


All in it's just another day

As I slowly watch you fade away

American Soldier


I am the American Soldier

I live in this hell as I grow older


Many moons have come and gone

Everything about this war, is cruel and wrong



I sit and wait for my time to fight

I don't even know what is just, and right

I fight for one man's greed

He who cares for his own needs



Children dying, people crying

Why must I continue fighting?

People suffering from the pain

There is nothing more to gain


My innocence has died in this war

I want to no longer see this blood and gore



I am the American Soldier

Why won't this flame just grow cold, and smolder?

I like the first more, but probably because it's more relatable.

Thanks for the responses...

And no, I did not make the pictures.

Otherwise I wouldn't have given "Mike" credit.

I liked the first one a lot... not only was it more relatable, but also the rhythm of it is clean and crisp, each one very well put. The ways the words and their syllables were placed were really nice- I'd always have problems there -_-

Anyway, gj gj happy.gif
