An Army Waiting Ahead

Cold Love

It came in with the winter, It was cold, dark, and beautiful, You claimed it was love, Somehow I loved all of it.

Freckled Cheeks and Long Blond Hair

They see her Freckled cheeks always blushing Long blond hair always dancing And delicate hands always tangled in yours But behind closed doors it is another story Behind closed doors it is a different scenery

Hell

It is often our lovely safe homes That give birth to the most astonishing hell Where our bodies burn silently And the fire remains invisible
