~Dedicated to the soldiers in Iraq
***************************
If this is to be my final hour, strike me dead before my final breath
For not the hum of your lasting love will keep me from this pain
In honor of war I’ve bled, for those I left behind…
Raging against my thirst and liberation
Always dreaming of silence
I hold fast, saving my tears
Though my pleading heart condemns me
Hope is my obsession
I’m buried in this wasteland
