Aug 2015
He stands over his own grave.
With one single wave
He says goodbye.
A tear falls from his eyes.

He salutes the tombstone
Salutes the man he'd once known.
He now lays under the stone
There he'll be until he's nothing but bones.

He fought a never ending war
Fought a destroyer
Fought a monster
It's he who he ended up to devour.

He's alive, but dead; He's torn.
A new man in his shoes is born.
Here I stand and morn
I watched all since he Inborn.

He's a former soldier.
Her's my father.
