Wasted Days and Twisted Nights

 

Summer..... Why do I love thee?..... You’re hot but your nights are
shorter.........The pain in my body is second to the pain in my
mind..........The hot day eases both......the short night are less time
to be tortured............Burn the lights all night to keep the dark at
bay..........It doesn't work.......the darkness is in my heart......I
have found little light to get that deep.......and no where is there
sleep........the days I am weary and sluggish.....not at my self because
of lack of sleep...........the nights I dread for fear of
reprisals.........From man NO..........if they were men or manmade I
could fight them.............The pounding through my head is what I
dread..........600 Wasted days and Twisted nights........called
Nam.......FRUSTRATION........HATE.......
ANGER.............CONFUSION........... WHY........... Always the
WHY.............Always FEAR........always.
