The thorn me

I grow on you cause

Your what I need

Without you I don’t exist, become worthless

You give me beauty

And

I in return protect your growth

         As the plane rolls in
Flags wave vigorously
        Cheering begins

The stairs roll up
        Our hero’s descend
The deployment is over
        Worrying can end

Arms outstretched
        Loved ones embrace
Happiness explodes
        Amazing Grace

Beyond what words can express
Heart stopping, pulse pounding
Without definition; love

Constantly out of reach
You can stretch and stretch
But never touch or meet
Yet,
Still you try to defeat
The barrier, the distance
For that almost touching
Instant

        now I feel used;
you blurred my vision,
        left me confused,

pondering thoughts
        not my own,
seeking salvation
        all alone.

So here I stand,
        lost for awhile,
heart grief-filled,
        unable to smile

because you used me,
        destroyed all I knew.
Now I’m nothing…
        because of you.
