Wounded soldier
"There's always someone for you"
He said boldly to man lying down
Injured from battle of love
Never seem to gather more strength
For next battle more daunting than the last
The words never made sense
But he had no strength to put reason to it
Misery, anger and somberness have keys
to doors of rationality. Any nonsense
that seems to have sense
Was good for motivation.
He stared at her with a look that says
"I can be prefect for you".
She still couldn't notice him
He must be in invisibility cloak.
Tears is not the charm to take it off.
Not even insomnia.
There! there! The elderly finally said.
Made more sense than most love quotes.
