Skies pink with bubbling royal clouds,
crisp bleak air fills her perished lungs.
Blond as a Barbie doll,
little does she know she has it all.
Full of numb misery,
she tries to keep busy.
Heat radiating, pulsing sweat,
unsure of what happens next.
Standing in full uniform, belonging to
the United States Government,
his heart longs for her.
Trying to escape,
she hides the promise ring,
deep in a dresser drawer meaning
everything.
She battles the emptiness of months
away from her sweetheart, yet never doubts
the inevitable of their life to come.
Surrounded by others identical to him,
marching in unity, becoming
immune to vicious demands,
He remembers why he's here:
a life without her would be no life at all.
To wake up with her in his arms,
to kiss, laugh, and explore could
never imprint him
with anyone else, but
her.
