Dormant lungs, paralyzed
Body hung suspended
Tired heart; empty eyes
Tainted from remorse
Injuries there inside
Agonies unspoken
Broken dreams; hope denied
War without recourse
Lay them down, my dearest one
Let the stripes across your back
Mend in time–mend with love
Casualties of these attacks
Come alive again, my dear
Weakened wings can fly from here
Vestige of my darling friend
Come alive–awake again
