This is a poem about Lucy She's thinkin' about someone she loves someone far away someone who can''t help but think about Lucy too even in their hardest times someone older then her someone mentally ready for pain Long distances love stretches through far across the globe never thinning even at the farthest distances between shots the one across seas will say "I'll come back for you. I won't come back in a letter I won't come back in a coffin I'll come back I'll come back in person I'll come back to you alive." Xavier is 15 he is in 10th his mom is a veteran who knows her past She was a mechanic in the gulf war she was beaten down and broke Now every day she has to take ten different pain killers, and two kinds of muscle relaxers she is always in pain her back is the main reason for this Xavier asked his mom to get something for him She leaned and dropped to the floor and said "Sorry Xavier, I'm hurting too much. We'll have to leave." Xavier frowned and pouted he looked down at his mother's face she was on the brink of tears he bucked and lifted his mom and took her to the car there she took more pain killers and a ibuprofen she sank down into the car seat her became calm and sighed before he opened the door he handed her the credit card and started the car he drove her to the Va where they gave her more pain killers and prescribed her more and more pain killers Our Veterans and Active members of the Military are the reason for our freedom the reason for our living they gave us this gift and Veterans day just isn't doing it we shouldn't just thank and support them around this day Veterans day should be every day It's sad we can't that happen, even after all they've done
