Love's Reality

Location

Don't they say

That love is a battlefeild

However, I dont see that

Love isn't the place where a battle is won

or lost

Love is the man

crouched behind a pile of shrapnel

Sobbing

Waiting for death to hit him

but fighting on

Love is the family

waiting at home for their soldier

And hearing the doorbell

Then few words

Being given a letter

And being left

Alone

However

the family does not

crumble

or simply stop

they stand together

Just like their soldier

With passion in their hearts

Love is not trampled on

It stands up

and fights back.
