Soldier Child

So good
To see you
To see you again
I'd almost forgotten
What it's like
To be this tired

Hold my hand
Across the table
Act like
You're invisible
And not just high
Unavailable

Now that I am
Over

Smiling at you
Wild like a tiger afraid
I fought like a child
Soldier
Fights to forget
What it's like
To be
Home

So good
To see you
To see you again
I'd almost forgotten
What it's like
To feel this pain
Hold my hand
Across the table
Act like

You're invisible
Not just high
And
Unavailable

Now that I am
Over
Smiling at you
Wild like a tiger afraid
I fought like a child
Soldier
Fights to forget
What it's like
To be
Home
