LAMENT OF WAR
by Jane Reinheimer
Did you pass
In the dark of night
While I waited
For first light?

The angels
Marked this way
While the dawn
Broke through the night

My mind burned
Memories of this place
Into my soul.
I knew that when
I walked out of the shadows,
I’d never go back
To that dark place.

I stood on th shore
Of my life
And felt the future
Wash through me,
Bathing me in new places
That live deep inside.

I will always live
In this peaceful place
With you.

It’s where our hearts
Sing their September sons.

I thought the dawn
Would be laughing at me.
Instead, it
Embraced me
Thitherward
Toward our foreverness.

Wait for me, my love,
I’ll be home soon.
