And then she sighs
and says in a shaking voice:

when does this war end?

He pauses for a bit,
presses the phone to his heart,
then whispers

"the moment I see you"

    This poem holds such a deep message in it's whole form. The title is simple yes, but it makes the poem, because that's what the poem is, a conversation between two lovers.

    First-- okay you start the feelings early, this girl is nervous about something. What it us we don't know...yet, but it's a great start because you capture the readers attention. By showing emotion you make the reader think.

    Second- This line is powerful and can be interpreted in so many ways. What is the war, a war inside of himself or like fighting and guns?

    Third- This line shows great emotion again, the guy is sad and wants to be back with his girl. And the last line is outstanding and the best. Love is love no matter what and this shows true love. This is a short poem but it shows great emotion and imagery. Very impressed. 5/5
